Subject: [PATCH 0/4] checkout/reset/read-tree: fix --recurse-submodules in linked worktree

This series fixes the behaviour of git checkout/reset/read-tree
--recurse-submodules when they are called in a linked worktree (created by 
git worktree add). 

Although submodules are cloned in $GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/<name>/modules 
upon issuing git submodule update in the linked worktree, any invocation of 
git checkout/reset/read-tree --recurse-submodules that changes the state of
the submodule(s) will incorrectly operate on the repositories of the
submodules in the main worktree, i.e. the ones at $GIT_COMMON_DIR/modules/. 

The fourth patch fixes this behaviour by using get_git_dir() instead of 
git_common_dir() in submodule.c::submodule_move_head and 
submodule.c::submodule_unset_core_worktree to construct the path to the
submodule repository.

The first 3 patches are clean-up patches on t7410-submodule-checkout-to.sh
(renamed to t2405-worktree-submodule.sh) to bring it up to date.

Note: in the second test added in the fourth patch I used test_might_fail 
such that when the test is run on the current master, only the last test_cmp 
makes the test fail. If we want to be more strict I'll change that to :
