submodule: stop sanitizing config options
The point of having a whitelist of command-line config options to pass to submodules was two-fold: 1. It prevented obvious nonsense like using core.worktree for multiple repos. 2. It could prevent surprise when the user did not mean for the options to leak to the submodules (e.g., http.sslverify=false). For case 1, the answer is mostly "if it hurts, don't do that". For case 2, we can note that any such example has a matching inverted surprise (e.g., a user who meant http.sslverify=true to apply everywhere, but it didn't). So this whitelist is probably not giving us any benefit, and is already creating a hassle as people propose things to put on it. Let's just drop it entirely. Note that we still need to keep a special code path for "prepare the submodule environment", because we still have to take care to pass through $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS (and block the rest of the repo-specific environment variables). We can do this easily from within the submodule shell script, which lets us drop the submodule--helper option entirely (and it's OK to do so because as a "--" program, it is entirely a private implementation detail).
