Cloud directory sync's git diff now reports dirty submodules and short submodule summaries

What

When Claude Code syncs a cloud session's directory using git diff, it now passes --ignore-submodules=dirty instead of --ignore-submodules=all, and adds --submodule=short.

Why

Previously all submodule changes were ignored entirely during this sync. Now submodules that have been modified (dirty) will show up in the diff, with a short summary format, so uncommitted submodule changes are less likely to be silently missed during cloud sync.
