Add a new option, --refs-backend-type, to allow the ref backend type to
be set on new clones.

Submodules must use the same ref backend as the parent repository, so
we also pass the --refs-backend-type option option when cloning
submodules.

Our config variable names don't use separated-with-hyphens but rather
wordsruntogether (though in documentation this would be written
core.refsBackendType, because the actual names are case-insensitive).

Will fix, thanks.
