Merge branch 'sb/submodule-clone-rr'

"git clone --resurse-submodules --reference $path $URL" is a way to
reduce network transfer cost by borrowing objects in an existing
$path repository when cloning the superproject from $URL; it
learned to also peek into $path for presense of corresponding
repositories of submodules and borrow objects from there when able.

* sb/submodule-clone-rr:
  clone: recursive and reference option triggers submodule alternates
  clone: implement optional references
  clone: clarify option_reference as required
  clone: factor out checking for an alternate path
  submodule--helper update-clone: allow multiple references
  submodule--helper module-clone: allow multiple references
  t7408: merge short tests, factor out testing method
  t7408: modernize style
