I use --pretend daily and very often I see that portage wants to
update/downgrade a package.  Most of the time it actually doesn't downgrade as
the package it wanted to initially remove was protected.

The --pretend output must take into account the protected package and not report
a downgrade if the package needed to be downgraded is protected.

Sounds like a dupe of #4698
