Teach 'git clone --recurse-submodules' to respect the '-q' option by
passing down the quiet flag to the process which handles cloning of
submodules.

Good spotting.  Makes me wonder if there still are other options we
might have missed, but we can incrementally improve as bug report
comes in ;-)

Yeah I've noticed that the number one difficulty with doing submodule
operations in another process is making sure that the correct options
are passed down.

Will queue.  Thanks.

Thanks!
