[LD] [DU] Sim with degree gets a bucket list goal to get a degree

I wrote a bucket list for my Sim, and she got "I'd like to finish university" goal, but she already has a degree (it's showing in her Simology panel). I suppose the problem is that she got her degree...

This bug is a pain if you play rotationally and a sim finishes their degree while you're playing with another household.

Issue: I checked the tuning files, and the "I'd like to Finish University" Bucket List goal is linked to a buff rather than a degree trait (buff_University_Graduation_Graduated). This is inconsistent with the "Earn a degree" aspiration task [DU], which only checks for a UNIVERSITY_DEGREE trait.

What should happen: the bucket list goal should complete consistently with how the University-related "earn a degree" aspiration task is able to be completed. Which is when a degree trait is added to the sim.

Otherwise, the goal should've been called "I'd like to GRADUATE from university" rather than finish university.

The relevant objective tuning file from the Discover University aspiration goal. Checks for any university degree trait.The relevant objective tuning file from the Life & Death bucket list goal. Checks for a university graduation buff, not trait.

Thanks for pointing the specifics out. Someone in my rotation just failed to get his checkmark for this reason and I was wondering what was going on.
