[PATCHv2 35/36] clone: add --init-submodule=<pathspec> switch

[Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>]

The new switch passes the pathspec to `git submodule update --init`
which is called after the actual clone is done.

Additionally this configures the submodule.defaultUpdatePath to
be the given pathspec, such that any future invocation of
`git submodule update --init-default-paths` will keep up
with the pathspec.

 --[no-]shallow-submodules::
 	All submodules which are cloned will be shallow with a depth of 1.
