[PATCH 1/9] submodule: implement `module_list` as a builtin helper

Most of the submodule operations work on a set of submodules. Calculating and using this set is usually done via:

       module_list "$@" | {
           while read mode sha1 stage sm_path
           do
                # the actual operation
           done
       }

Currently the function `module_list` is implemented in the git-submodule.sh as a shell script wrapping a perl script. The rewrite is in C, such that it is faster and can later be easily adapted when other functions are rewritten in C.

git-submodule.sh similar to the builtin commands will navigate to the top most directory of the repository and keeping the subdirectories as a variable. As the helper is called from within the git-submodule.sh script, we are already navigated to the root level, but the path arguments are stil relative to the subdirectory we were in when calling git-submodule.sh. That's why there is a `--prefix` option pointing to an alternative path where to anchor relative path arguments.
