grep: take the read-lock when adding a submodule
With --recurse-submodules, we add each submodule that we encounter to
the list of alternate object databases. With threading, our changes to
the list are not protected against races. Indeed, ThreadSanitizer
reports a race when we call `add_to_alternates_memory()` around the same
time that another thread is reading in the list through
`read_sha1_file()`.
Take the grep read-lock while adding the submodule. The lock is used to
serialize uses of non-thread-safe parts of Git's API, including
`read_sha1_file()`.
