Teach 'submodule_has_commits()' to ensure that if a commit exists in a
submodule, that it is also reachable from a ref.

This is a prepritory step prior to merging the logic which checkes for
s/prepritory/preparatory/
s/checkes/checks/

This is the first commit in the series that changes user observable behavior,
I guess there will be tests in a later patch? Can you elaborate in this commit
message more about why it is useful (or at least harmless for performing
this check in the case of fetch/push)?
This hunk of logic is essentially a copy and paste from elsewhere in the
file.  Essentially both code paths were essentially doing the same thing
(checking if a submodule has a commit) but one of the code paths included
this logic to ensure that it was reachable from a ref in the submodule.
In order to merge the two code paths, I included that logic here.

Maybe it would make sense to squash this into the next patch as the
place where this was copied from is removed?
