Fix deprecation conditions and make YAML output cleaner

Deprecation conditions now only show what matters:
- When deprecated: condition shows "True" with deprecation message
- When not deprecated: condition is absent (no clutter!)
- When we can't check: condition shows "Unknown"

This fixes three problems:
1. Install errors were leaking into deprecation conditions
2. Catalog unavailable showed "False" instead of "Unknown"
3. BundleDeprecated was checking the wrong bundle (resolved vs installed)

Also improved the code:
- Simpler logic (clear all, then add only what's needed)
- Better reason values (Deprecated, DeprecationStatusUnknown, Absent)
- Comprehensive test coverage for all scenarios
