When using the --recurse-submodules flag with a relative pathspec which
includes "..", an error is produced inside the child process spawned for
a submodule. When creating the pathspec struct in the child, the ".."
is interpreted to mean "go up a directory" which causes an error stating
that the path ".." is outside of the repository.
While it is true that ".." is outside the scope of the submodule, it is
confusing to a user who originally invoked the command where ".." was
indeed still inside the scope of the superproject. Since the child
process launched for the submodule has some context that it is operating
underneath a superproject, this error could be avoided.
This patch fixes the bug by passing the 'prefix' to the child process.
Now each child process that works on a submodule has two points of
reference to the superproject: (1) the 'super_prefix' which is the path
from the root of the superproject down to root of the submodule and (2)
the 'prefix' which is the path from the root of the superproject down to
the directory where the user invoked the git command.
With these two pieces of information a child process can correctly
interpret the pathspecs provided by the user as well as being able to
properly format its output relative to the directory the user invoked
the original command from.

If a submodule was renamed at any point since it's inception then if you
were to try and grep on a commit prior to the submodule being moved, you
wouldn't be able to find a working directory for the submodule since the
path in the past is different from the current path.
This patch teaches grep to find the .git directory for a submodule in
the parents .git/modules/ directory in the event the path to the
submodule in the commit that is being searched differs from the state of
the currently checked out commit. If found, the child process that is
spawned to grep the submodule will chdir into its gitdir instead of a
working directory.
In order to override the explicit setting of submodule child process's
gitdir environment variable (which was introduced in '10f5c526')
`GIT_DIR_ENVIORMENT` needs to be pushed onto child process's env_array.
This allows the searching of history from a submodule's gitdir, rather
than from a working directory.

Teach grep to recursively search in submodules when provided with a
<tree> object. This allows grep to search a submodule based on the state
of the submodule that is present in a commit of the super project.
When grep is provided with a <tree> object, the name of the object is
prefixed to all output. In order to provide uniformity of output
between the parent and child processes the option `--parent-basename`
has been added so that the child can preface all of it's output with the
name of the parent's object instead of the name of the commit SHA1 of
the submodule. This changes output from the command
`git grep -e. -l --recurse-submodules HEAD` from:
HEAD:file
<commit sha1 of submodule>:sub/file
to:
HEAD:file
HEAD:sub/file

Allow grep to recognize submodules and recursively search for patterns in
each submodule. This is done by forking off a process to recursively
call grep on each submodule. The top level --super-prefix option is
used to pass a path to the submodule which can in turn be used to
prepend to output or in pathspec matching logic.
Recursion only occurs for submodules which have been initialized and
checked out by the parent project. If a submodule hasn't been
initialized and checked out it is simply skipped.
In order to support the existing multi-threading infrastructure in grep,
output from each child process is captured in a strbuf so that it can be
later printed to the console in an ordered fashion.
To limit the number of theads that are created, each child process has
half the number of threads as its parents (minimum of 1), otherwise we
potentailly have a fork-bomb.
