diff --submodule: split into bite-sized pieces
Introduce two functions:
- prepare_submodule_summary prepares the revision walker
to list changes in a submodule. That is, it:
* finds merge bases between the commits pointed to this
path from before ("left") and after ("right") the change;
* checks whether this is a fast-forward or fast-backward;
* prepares a revision walk to list commits in the symmetric
difference between the commits at each endpoint.
It returns nonzero on error.
- print_submodule_summary runs the revision walk and saves
the result to a strbuf in --left-right format.
The goal is just readability. No functional change intended.
