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
