[PATCH v6 1/3] submodule--helper: refactor module_clone()

[Atharva Raykar <raykar.ath@gmail.com>]

Separate out the core logic of module_clone() from the flag
parsing---this way we can call the equivalent of the `submodule--helper
clone` subcommand directly within C, without needing to push arguments
in a strvec.
