merge-recursive: demonstrate an incorrect conflict with submodule

When one side of a merge turns a directory into a submodule, and the other
side does not touch that directory (but has other non-conflicting changes),
then a merge should succeed. But currently, it does not; it rather fails
with a file/directory conflict.
