Subject: [PATCH] Ask git to checkout a submodule even if it is skipped in
`.gitmodules`
Setting a submodule as `update = none` is a common way to make cargo
skip the submodule. Unfortunately this makes `actions/checkout` skip
the submodule too, even if it's configured to fetch submodules.
This patch adds an option that is a default in git but causes the
submodules to be available even if skipped otherwise.
