[PATCH 1/4] entry.c: submodule recursing: respect force flag correctly

In case of a non-forced worktree update, the submodule movement is tested in a dry run first, such that it doesn't matter if the actual update is done via the force flag. However for correctness, we want to give the flag is specified by the user. All callers have been inspected and updated if needed.
