[PATCH 1/3] submodule clone: pass along `local` option

From

When cloning a local repository, the user may choose to use an optimization such that the transfer uses a Git agnostic protocol. Propagate the users choice to submodules or if they don't choose, propagate nothing. A test will be added in a later patch.
