Because the current state of bundle list handling is equivalent to "no
heuristic", this pre-existing test is just updated to verify all bundles are
downloaded. This isn't new behavior, but it'll be relevant to compare with
the behavior of the 'creationToken' heuristic. 

I was going to ask how the tests verify that *only* the expected bundles are
downloaded, and it looks like later patches [1] handle that with
'! test_bundle_downloaded' checks. That approach seems a bit fragile (if a
bundle's name doesn't match the '! test_bundle_downloaded' check for some
reason, the bundle can be either downloaded or not with no effect on the
test result). Would something like a 'test_downloaded_bundle_count' work
instead?

This test looks like the one that was updated above, but adds the
'creationToken' heuristic key. However, the 'test_bundle_downloaded' check
isn't included - if it were, it would need to verify that all bundles were
downloaded, with the heuristic being ignored, all bundles will be downloaded
(which isn't consistent with what the 'creationToken' heuristic will
*eventually* do).

As a matter of personal preference (so no pressure to change if you
disagree), I find this test in its current state a bit misleading; because
it's a 'test_expect_success' and there's no "NEEDSWORK" or "TODO", I could
easily assume that cloning from a bundle list with the 'creationToken'
heuristic is working as-intended at this point (that is, there's no
indication that it's not implemented). 

If you did want to change it, adding a 'NEEDSWORK' comment, changing to
'test_expect_failure' & including the appropriate 'test_bundle_downloaded'
check, or moving this test to the patch where the heuristic is implemented
would mitigate any confusion. That said, this "issue" is resolved by the
end of the series anyway, so it's really a low priority fix.
