In an effort to make channel head selection understandable and deterministic when bulk-adding bundles to an index using `--mode=replaces` (the default), the following heuristic has been adopted: the bundles with the highest version within a package are considered the heads of the channels they belong to.

#### Under the Hood
-`opm` effectively decomposes bundle addition into three steps for each package:
-
-1. Add bundles to the underlying data store
-2. Choose the channel heads and default channel
-3. Rebuild the update graph starting at the new heads
+`opm` effectively decomposes bundle addition into the following steps for each package:
-Channel head -- the "latest" operator in a channel -- selection is now informed by [semver](https://semver.org/). The heurstic is simple, the bundle with the highest version in each channel becomes the new head. The default channel is then taken from the maximum versioned bundle which defines a default channel.

+Channel head -- the "latest" operator in a channel -- selection is now informed by [semver](https://semver.org/). The heurstic is that the bundle with the highest version in each channel becomes the new head. The default channel is then taken from the maximum versioned bundle which defines a default channel.
Starting from these heads, opm then rebuilds the entire update graph using the edges defined by the `replaces` and `skips` CSV fields.
-If a given CSV is missing a version field, all CSVs (sourced from the command's arguments) belonging package are elided from the input. Additionally, a non-zero exit code is returned from the command.
-CSVs without a version (and with duplicate versions) that are already part of the index are allowed so long as there is at least one CSV with a version field in the package that we can recognize as having the maximum version.
-When `--overwrite-latest` is set, all bundle in a package are deleted and passed in as "input", and thus are constrained by the rules set out in the first paragraph above; the exceptions set out in the second paragraph above do not apply, and violations cause the offending package to be excluded from the index.

+CSVs without a version (and with duplicate versions) that are *already part of the index* are allowed so long as there is at least one CSV with a version field in the package that is recognizable as having the maximum version.

+When `--overwrite-latest` is set, all existing bundles in a package are processed as new "input", and are thus constrained by the rules for new bundles with no exception for previously-existing unversioned/duplicatively-versioned CSVs, and any offending package in input will be excluded from the resulting index.
