I do not think it is a good idea to single out bundles, but I can
sort of see how it could be useful when making a partial clone that
does not have blobs. `git pack-objects --objects=tag,commit,tree`
might want to be driven when preparing pack data to populate such a
clone initially.  Unifying these three object flags into "all the
others" is tempting but would close the door for such a tweak.
