Add "download only" and "don't download" command line switches #64

What steps will reproduce the problem?

 Run CBloader with an index file present in the Custom folder

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

 At present, CBloader will update the index file if there's a Web location specified for the index, download the files specified in it, then launch as normal. I tend to double-check what came down from the index to make sure there's nothing there I don't want, and to clear out CBloader's temp files for a clean merge after that (to work around issues 32 and 41), so it'd be great if I could tell CBloader to *only* do the download step, or to *skip* the download step, depending on what I'm up to. Right now I do download-only by running with the index and aborting the console once the actual merge process begins, and do no-download by renaming my .index files to .xml files. A less clunky approach would be sweet!

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

 v1.2, Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.

Config files for v1.2.1 can include the <LaunchBuilder> and <UpdateFirst> 
options which can be combined to get the effect of a "download only" switch by 
setting LaunchBuilder to False and UpdateFirst to true.

You don't want to set LaunchBuilder to false.  That option is there for people 
who have Hard Patched. 

Although if you were to make a second cbconfig file with it set to true, then 
launch CBLoader through that config file, it would allow you to do what you 
want. (Note that you will need to update your associations (the -a switch) in 
order to launch cbconfig files)
