setup: add gentle version of read_gitfile

read_gitfile will die on most error cases. This makes it unsuitable
for speculative calls. Extract the core logic and provide a gentle
version that returns NULL on failure.

The first usecase of the new gentle version will be to probe for
submodules during git clean.
