populate: check the hooks and submodules of Git work trees
git submodule update uses the .git of a submodule as it finds it in the
work tree: a repository of its own, with configuration that runs
commands, or a file naming a repository elsewhere. So git_problems
also requires each .git below the work tree to be a file naming a
repository in .git/modules. And it refuses hooks in .git/hooks, which
populate's Git doesn't run, but Nix's does, writing the lock file of a
flake in a git source.
git-submodule plants a submodule's .git in the work tree: a repository
of its own whose configuration names a filter, and a file naming a
repository elsewhere. The fixture withsub has gitsrc as its submodule
sub.
