This sounds as if this would also enable fetching new submodules
eventually?

I think that should have been the consensus since ~1.7.8 (since the
submodules git dir can live inside the superprojects
<gitdir>/module/<name>).

A gitlink entry without corresponding .gitmodules entry is just a gitlink.
If we happen to have a repository at that path of the gitlink, we can
be nice and pretend like it is a functional submodule, but it really is
not. It's just another repo inside the superproject that happen to live
at the path of a gitlink.

I would not intentionally break users here, but any new functionality can
safely assume (a) we have a proper .gitmodules entry or (b) it is not a
submodule, so do nothing/be extra careful.

For example in recursive diff sort of makes sense to also handle
non-submodule gitlinks, but fetch is harder to tell.

(just last night I was rereading
https://public-inbox.org/git/CAJo=hJvnAPNAdDcAAwAvU9C4RVeQdoS3Ev9WTguHx4fD0V_nOg@mail.gmail.com/
which I think is a super cute application of gitlinks. If you happen
to checkout such
a tree, you don't want to fetch all of the fake submodules)

Oha, that is from way back in the time. :)

Here a comment would be helpful or a more concise variable name.

(optional style nit, personal opinion, feel free to ignore)
I personally prefer to not name variables exactly as their type.
Also most (all) of the struct submodule uses used 'sub' as
the variable name, maybe keep it consistent?

eventually we can also migrate to name here as well.
In a later patch.
