merge-ort: avoid surprise with new sub_flag variable

Commit 4057523a40 ("submodule merge: update conflict error message", 2022-08-04) added a sub_flag variable that is used to store a value from enum conflict_and_info_types, but initializes it with a value of -1 that does not correspond to any of the conflict_and_info_types. The code may never set it to a valid value and yet still use it, which can be surprising when reading over the code at first. Initialize it instead to the generic CONFLICT_SUBMODULE_FAILED_TO_MERGE value, which is still distinct from the two values we need to special case.
