[PATCH 5/5] submodule: submodule_move_head omits old argument in forced case

From

With the previous patch applied (fix of the same() function), the function `submodule_move_head` may be invoked with the same argument for the `old` and `new` state of a submodule, for example when you run `reset --hard --recurse-submodules` in the superproject that has no change in the gitlink entry, but only worktree related change in the submodule. The read-tree call in the submodule is not amused about the duplicate argument.

It turns out that we can omit the duplicate old argument in all forced cases anyway, so let's do that.
