Description

If a bundle file in WEB-INF/resources/bundles (in a webapp) or resources/bundles (in a standalone app) is a SNAPSHOT, the bundle should be upgraded if it is already installed and the versions match.

This doesn't work consistently because isAlreadyInstalled() doesn't detect changes to bundles in an exploded webapp (e.g. with mvn jetty:run); you have to touch the launcher jar file to force the upgrade check to happen.

I didn't come up with a good way to test this functionality. Open to suggestions...
