fetch/pull: Add the 'on-demand' value to the --recurse-submodules option
Until now the --recurse-submodules option could only be used to either fetch all populated submodules recursively or to disable recursion completely. As fetch and pull now by default just fetch those submodules for which new commits have been fetched in the superproject, a command line option to enforce that behavior is needed to be able to override configuration settings.

This option controls if new commits of all populated submodules should
be fetched too (see linkgit:git-config[1] and linkgit:gitmodules[5]).
That might be necessary to get the data needed for merging submodule
