This looks like a bug, as passing bulk=True, clear=True results in the
following behavior:
- clear() is invoked in "non-bulk" mode, triggering signals
- add() is correctly invoked in "bulk" mode, no signals are not triggered
I spotted this while reading the `related_descriptors.py` code to fix
#29440.

New description:
For reverse many-to-one relations, the `set` method's `bulk` keyword
argument is passed down to the `add()` and `remove()` methods. It isn't
however passed down to the `clear()` method:
This looks like a bug, as passing bulk=False, clear=True results in the
following behavior:
- clear() is invoked in "bulk" mode, not triggering signals
- add() is invoked in "non-bulk" mode, signals are triggered
Admitedly, I'm not too sure why you would want to do this, but at the very
least the docs should mention if this combination is unsupported.

Comment (by Alexander Tatarinov):
I would like to work on this if confirmed as bug. Seems pretty
straightforward to fix. Also I think we should add some tests to check
number of queries issued.
