submodule: introduce extensions.submodulePathConfig
The idea of this extension is to abstract away the submodule gitdir
path implementation: everyone is expected to use the config and not
worry about how the path is computed internally, either in git or
other implementations.
With this extension enabled, the submodule.<name>.gitdir repo config
becomes the single source of truth for all submodule gitdir paths.
The submodule.<name>.gitdir config is added automatically for all new
submodules when this extension is enabled.
Git will throw an error if the extension is enabled and a config is
missing, advising users how to migrate. Migration is manual for now.
E.g. to add a missing config entry for an existing "foo" module:
git config submodule.foo.gitdir .git/modules/foo
