Steps to reproduce the issue

Try to install 4.0-dev with incorrect DB user/password

Expected result

You get error message/page with possibility to go back.

Actual result

You get useless error page (from User point of view)
You even cannot start over.

To start over you should clear cookies and delete existing configuration.php.
That is bad.

System information (as much as possible)

php 7.0
Joomla 4.0-dev

@franz-wohlkoenig current issue about DB error handling,
somehow it similar to #18834 but not the same

#18834 is about "back button" in general, that also should be fixed, of course

Also the same as #18736

We need to figure out how this works now that we have a single page application rather than a multi-page app.

As the message that is throw by the error also just a error message (like the database connection issues) they are failing on normal database connection errors too.

#18958 functionally fixes the issue (and I'll leave one of the interface people to do a subequent cleanup of the UI)

I'm going to leave this issue open even when my PR gets merged so we also remember to do the UX cleanup :)
