dir: new flag to remove_dir_recurse() to spare the original_cwd
remove_dir_recurse(), and its non-static wrapper called remove_dir_recursively(), both take flags for modifying its behavior. As with the previous commits, we would generally like to protect the original_cwd, but we want to forced user commands (e.g. 'git rm -rf ...') or other special cases to remove it. Add a flag for this purpose. After reading through every caller of remove_dir_recursively() in the current codebase, there was only one that should be adjusted and that one only in a very unusual circumstance. Add a pair of new testcases to highlight that very specific case involving submodules && --git-dir && --work-tree.
