[PATCH v8 0/2] Avoid submodule overwritten and skip redundant active entries

[K Jayatheerth <jayatheerthkulkarni2005@gmail.com>]

The first patch i.e. prevent overwriting .gitmodules entry on path reuse
is exactly the same 

The second patch however i.e. 
skip redundant active entries when pattern covers path
has changed logic 
with the helper function being code maintainance because 
of the duplicated logic. I've tried to wrap it as much as 
possible to it's own core need without having to change it
unless the core way of submodules addition and active status
itself changes.

The CI was tested in which 
the only compiler error I found was 
osx-gcc
Which I suppose is already addressed,
apart from this all of the other tests 
ran successfully which includes the 
t7413 (prvious 9) and the new one.
