[PATCH 4/4] submodule deinit: unset core.worktree

From

When a submodule is deinit'd, the working tree is gone, so the setting of core.worktree is bogus. Unset it. As we covered the only other case in which a submodule loses its working tree in the earlier step (i.e. switching branches of top-level project to move to a commit that did not have the submodule), this makes the code always maintain core.worktree correctly unset when there is no working tree for a submodule.

This re-introduces 984cd77ddb (submodule deinit: unset core.worktree, 2018-06-18), which was reverted as part of f178c13fda (Revert "Merge branch 'sb/submodule-core-worktree'", 2018-09-07)

The whole series was reverted as the offending commit e98317508c (submodule: ensure core.worktree is set after update, 2018-06-18) was relied on by other commits such as 984cd77ddb.

Keep the offending commit reverted, but its functionality came back via 4d6d6ef1fc (Merge branch 'sb/submodule-update-in-c', 2018-09-17), such that we can reintroduce 984cd77ddb now.
