Bug Description
I think we need to be able to group individual downloads together. After discussion with didrocks about how the new u/i will work, having groups will help make the experience better. Here's a rough outline:
- the u/i will request from the client to download the current update in the background
- this update may include the download of many files
- we request a download group, and add all those individual downloads to it
- now the client can exit, after passing the group id to the u/i
- the u/i can then request progress on the group of downloads; once it's seen them all complete successfully, it re-fires the client and tells it to apply the update
- the client can use the persisted group id to get access to all the local files participating in the group
- it moves the local files into the right place and issues the reboot

* Middle step to fix #1211838 that refactors the code so that we have
a base Download class that is used by the DownloadQueue that can is
later extended by a single download class and a group download
class. (LP: #1211838)
