merge-recursive: prepare for `merge_submodule()` to report errors
The `merge_submodule()` function returns an integer that indicates whether the merge was clean (returning 1) or unclean (returning 0). Like the version in `merge-ort.c`, the version in `merge-recursive.c` does not report any errors (such as repository corruption) by returning -1 as of time of writing, even if the callers in `merge-ort.c` are prepared for exactly such errors. However, we want to teach (both variants of) the `merge_submodule()` function that trick: to report errors by returning -1. Therefore, prepare the caller in `merge-recursive.c` to handle that scenario.
