submodule add: fix breakage when re-adding a deep submodule
Since recently a submodule with name <name> has its git directory in the .git/modules/<name> directory of the superproject while the work tree contains a gitfile pointing there. When the same submodule is added on a branch where it wasn't present so far (it is not found in the .gitmodules file), the name is not initialized from the path as it should. This leads to a wrong path entered in the gitfile when the .git/modules/<name> directory is found, as this happily uses the - now empty - name. It then always points only a single directory up, even if we have a path deeper in the directory hierarchy. Fix that by initializing the name of the submodule early in module_clone() if module_name() returned an empty name and add a test to catch that bug.
