Currently, using git checkout --recurse-submodules (or the submodule.recurse 
config) to switch from a commit with no submodules to a commit with
initialized nested submodules fails because a child git process tries to cd 
to a yet non-existing nested submodule directory. reset and read-tree are
also affected in the same way since they also use the unpack-trees
machinery.

The 5th commit in this series fixes this bug. The first four are clean-up
patches in tests and in unpack-trees that mostly remove outdated
comments/dead code. The 6th commit adds a test for the reverse transition
(nested submodules -> no submodules) as it was not being tested.

The commit message of the 5th commit is quite long, as I tried to describe
clearly what is the cause of the bug.
