[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] fetch2/npm.py: Fix inverted condition to prevent infinite loop

At least the cli-color node module has dependencies that have
cyclic dependency among themselves. npm.py is prepared to deal
with such a case but the condition is handled only for downloading
or not a dependency again, but then it goes checking the its
dependency which causes an infinite loop in _getdependencies().
Make this function simply return when a dependency is already
downloaded and only download and check its dependencies when not.
