Merge branch 'gc/branch-recurse-submodules-fix'

A handful of obvious clean-ups around a topic that is already in
'master'.

* gc/branch-recurse-submodules-fix:
  branch.c: simplify advice-and-die sequence
  branch: rework comments for future developers
  branch: remove negative exit code
  branch --set-upstream-to: be consistent when advising
  branch: give submodule updating advice before exit
  branch: support more tracking modes when recursing
