[PATCH] git-submodule.sh: try harder to fetch a submodule

[Stefan Beller <sbeller@google.com>]

This is the logical continuum of fb43e31f2b4 (submodule: try harder to
fetch needed sha1 by direct fetching sha1, 2016-02-23) and fixes it as
some assumptions were not correct.

> If $sha1 was not part of the default fetch ... fail ourselves here
assumes that the fetch_in_submodule only fails when the serverside does
not support fetching by sha1.

There are other failures, why such a fetch may fail, such as
    fatal: Couldn't find remote ref HEAD
which can happen if the remote side doesn't advertise HEAD. Not advertising
HEAD is allowed by the protocol spec and would happen, if HEAD points at a
ref, that this user cannot see (due to ACLs for example).

So do try even harder for a submodule by ignoring the exit code of the
first fetch and rather relying on the following is_tip_reachable to
see if we try fetching again.
