download: don't suggest running 'git submodule'
The QEMU build system will automatically trigger updates of any git submodules that are required at the correct time. There is no reason for users to manually update submodules after checkout. This is a big waste of time since some of the submodules are huge and will never be touched. The suggestion to recursively update them also hit users when an EDK2 submodule recently went missing.
