 #38533 added a new fresh site flag.  On upgrading two sites to 4.7 beta1
 using the beta tester plugin I found that the flag was added to both
 sites.

 Both sites had previously existing content.  The result was that dummy
 content was shown when installing and using customizer with the new twenty
 seventeen theme, even though the site already had content.

 Recommend that fresh site be set only on a new installation.
