Jonathan Lebon e49f7cdd81 app: add --download-only option
To complement the new `--cache-only` option, add a `--download-only`
option. This does exactly what it says: we download the ostree, download
and import packages, but don't actually commit & deploy. This can be
used to effectively prime a follow-up `--cache-only` operation that can
be done during a more convenient/safer maintenance window.

I debated naming the two options `--pull-only` and `--deploy-only` like
the ostree equivalents. Though "pull" felt like the wrong word given
that it's associated more with ostree pulling but rpm-ostree also
downloads & imports RPMs. As for `--deploy-only` vs `--cache-only`, it
seems like `--cache-only` is a more accurate description of the
functionality (i.e. rather than describing an action, it describes a
mode). I also considered `--no-download` to make the synergy with
`--download-only` more obvious. Maybe that's better? Naming is hard...
