Output of az webapp up long > add spinner or better messaging.

[spboyer]

Works great, the Running deployment command... message was repeated to the point where I wasn't sure if it had failed or not. Luckily I was patient. Can we put better info as to what the command is or a spinner? @ahmedelnably

az webapp up -n shaynetest-razor21

@spboyer you are right, have that many messages (of the same content) doesn't give confidence that we are doing something.
@panchagnula let's get some proposals and see which is the most popular/relevant one

[panchagnula]

the messages here are coming from the back end, the long list of messages means that the BUILD operation on our end is taking long. changing this to spinner will still show a in progress message for a long time, we need to figure out the task that is taking longer, and fix the root cause here @spboyer can you share the log from kudu, you can find it under site/deployments. Alternately please share a link to the contents you used to deploy here, a GitHub link or zip file if possible & we can try for an inhouse repo.

[spboyer]

@panchagnula - the contents is a simple dotnet net new razor using the .NET Core CLI version 2.1.300, no changes. Here is the result of the Kudu deployment. The Runnig deployment command is the console ouput that repeats.
