[PATCH v2 14/15] unpack-trees: improve loading of .gitmodules

From

When recursing submodules 'check_updates()' needs to have strict control over the submodule-config subsystem to ensure that the gitmodules file has been read before checking cache entries which are marked for removal as well ensuring the proper gitmodules file is read before updating cache entries.

Because of this let's not rely on callers of 'check_updates()' to read the gitmodules file before calling 'check_updates()' and handle the reading explicitly.
