Missing "no_such_crate did not match any packages" after cargo update --breaking #16258
Description
Problem
cargo update -- no_such_crate helpfully reports an error. Unexpectedly such an error is not reported when --breaking (one of -Zunstable-options) is used.
Steps
Repro steps:
$ cargo new foo
$ cd foo
$ cargo build # to generate Cargo.lock
$ cargo update -- no_such_crate
error: package ID specification `no_such_crate` did not match any packages
$ cargo update -Zunstable-options --breaking -- no_such_crate
Expected behavior: both cargo update ... no_such_crate commands should report an error
Actual behavior: only one of the commands reports an error
Possible Solution(s)
No response
