Re: [PATCH v3 5/7] submodule: use the 'submodule--helper config' command

Use the 'submodule--helper config' command in git-submodules.sh to avoid
referring explicitly to .gitmodules by the hardcoded file path.

This makes it possible to access the submodules configuration in a more
controlled way.

Looks great.  I also like you're approach of introducing the new API and
testing it in one commit, and then using it in the next.  Makes the
patch set very easy to follow.
