[PATCH v2 1/5] submodule: expose the '--for-status' option of summary

[Shourya Shukla <shouryashukla.oo@gmail.com>]

The 'for-status' option is used to compute the summary of submodule(s)
in a superproject by skipping the ignored submdules i.e., those with
'submodule.<name>.ignore' set to 'all' in the '.gitmodules' or
'.git/config', with the latter taking precedence over the former.

The option was introduced in d0f64dd44d (git-submodule summary:
--for-status option, 2008-04-12), refined in 3ba7407b8b (submodule
summary: ignore --for-status option, 2013-09-06) and finally perfected
in 927b26f87a (submodule: don't print status output with ignore=all,
2013-09-01). But, it was not mentioned in the 'git submodule'
Documentation.

Expose the '--for-status' option accepted by the command 'git submodule
summary'.
