Force a fetch when superproject has a newer SHA1 for remote branch.

For older git-repo versions, we might have only fetched the SHA1
revision that was provided by the project, but have remote branch left
intact as long as they exist. When the remote branch become stale,
some repo operations like rebase would fail, and repo sync would not
correct this situation.

Fix this by tightening the requirement to also require the superproject
provided SHA1 be an ancestor or equal to the tip-of-tree of the remote
branch.
