[PATCH v2 05/18] submodule--helper: have --require-init imply --init

Adjust code added in 0060fd1511b (clone --recurse-submodules: prevent name squatting on Windows, 2019-09-12) to have the internal --require-init option imply --init, rather than having "git-submodule.sh" add it implicitly.

This change doesn't make any difference now, but eliminates another special-case where "git submodule--helper update"'s behavior was different from "git submodule update". This will make it easier to eventually replace the cmd_update() function in git-submodule.sh.

We'll still need to keep the distinction between "--init" and "--require-init" in git-submodule.sh. Once cmd_update() gets re-implemented in C we'll be able to change variables and other code related to that, but not yet.
