unbundle: swap conditional branches for clarity This is a small style update for clarity. The previous situation was: if foo: 50 lines else: 2 lines In such case I tend to invert these to get the simpler branch out of the way earlier: if not foo: 2 lines else: 50 lines This makes the conditional and various alternatives fit on the same screen, simpler to read overall.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
