AssetBundle does not get updated in the Editor when removing the assetBundleName line from the meta file of an Asset

Asset - Database

-

Jul 03, 2018

How to reproduce:
1. Create a new project
2. In the Project window create a new Material and select it
3. In the Inspector window create a new AssetBundle
4. Open the meta file of the created material Asset in an external editor and remove the line which starts with 'assetBundleName: '
5. Assign the material to the same AssetBundle one more time
6. Repeat step 4

Expected result: the Asset isn't assigned to the earlier created AssetBundle
Actual result: the Asset is still assigned to the AssetBundle

Reproducible with: 2018.4.31f1, 2019.4.17f1, 2020.1.17f1, 2020.2.1f1, 2021.1.0b1, 2021.2.0a1

Notes:
- Last two steps are unnecessary for 2018.4
