These options only make tor clients fetch relay extra info descriptors.
But that's not really clear in the man page:
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en
I logged this bug so we clarify that:

You asked your bridge for its server descriptor and it gave it to you.
Did you try:
print controller.get_extrainfo_descriptors("8B5F0BD647B3C4AF2C57F148FF6A1FB8B695B0AE")
https://stem.torproject.org/api/descriptor/remote.html#stem.descriptor.remote.DescriptorDownloader.get_extrainfo_descriptors
Since your bridge knows its own extra info descriptor, it should serve it to you.
I don't know how to find a server that caches *all* bridge extra infos.
Maybe you should try running these queries against the bridge authority?
(How does OnionOO do it?)

This is because your bridge is your directory guard.
If you want to fetch relay extra infos through your bridge, you need to
configure it to download and serve relay extra infos. I'm not sure how to do
that (maybe DirCache 1?), so I opened this ticket:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22492

That's because your client selects a directory mirror that caches extra
infos for relays.
