[PATCH 2/4] submodule: implement `module_name` as a builtin helper

The goal of this series being rewriting `git submodule update`, we don't want to call out to the shell script for config lookups.

So reimplement the lookup of the submodule name in C.

 When I started to implement git submodule add in the helper, I realized
 the very first thing to be done would be module_name translated to C,
 so I did that separately. Maybe we need to split this up as well into two
 separate steps for processing and I/O, such that it can be reused better
 from a future "git submodule--helper update" function
