submodules: introduce check to see whether to touch a submodule
In later patches we introduce the --recurse-submodule flag for commands that modify the working directory, e.g. git-checkout. It is potentially expensive to check if a submodule needs an update, because a common theme to interact with submodules is to spawn a child process for each interaction. So let's introduce a function that checks if a submodule needs to be checked for an update before attempting the update.
