doc: clarify description of 'submodule.recurse'
The doc for 'submodule.recurse' starts with "Specifies if commands recurse into submodles by default". This is not exactly true of all commands that have a '--recurse-submodules' option. For example, 'git pull --recurse-submodules' does not run 'git pull' in each submodule, but rather runs 'git submodule update --recursive' so that the submodule working trees after the pull matches the commits recorded in the superproject. Clarify that by just saying that it enables '--recurse-submodules'. Note that the way this setting interacts with 'fetch.recurseSubmodules' and 'push.recurseSubmodules', which can have other values than true or false, is already documented since 4da9e99e6e (doc: be more precise on (fetch|push).recurseSubmodules, 2020-04-06).
