This implements the helper `module_name` in C instead of shell, yielding a nice performance boost.

Before this patch, I measured a time (best out of three):
  $ time ./t7400-submodule-basic.sh  >/dev/null
    real	0m11.066s
    user	0m3.348s
    sys	0m8.534s
With this patch applied I measured (also best out of three)
  $ time ./t7400-submodule-basic.sh  >/dev/null
    real	0m10.063s
    user	0m3.044s
    sys	0m7.487s

Is this what you had in mind, Jens?

Jonathan pointed me to https://github.com/jlehmann/git-submod-enhancements/wiki Does it reflect reality (i.e. as time passes code changes)?

I also noticed that you have made quite some changes to submodules on different branches which are not upstream. Soem changes look familiar (as in "I believe this is upstream alreaday?" while others look new and exciting to me). I could not quite get the order yet, though.
