submodule--helper: set alternateLocation for cloned submodules

In 31224cbdc7 (clone: recursive and reference option triggers
submodule alternates, 2016-08-17) a mechanism was added to
have submodules referenced.  It did not address _nested_
submodules, however.

This patch makes all not just the root repository, but also
all submodules (recursively) have submodule.alternateLocation
and submodule.alternateErrorStrategy configured, making Git
search for possible alternates for nested submodules as well.

As submodule's alternate target does not end in .git/objects
(rather .git/modules/qqqqqq/objects), this alternate target
path restriction for in add_possible_reference_from_superproject
relates from "*.git/objects" to just */objects".

New tests have been added to t7408-submodule-reference.
