Essentially we'd only want to run ce_match_stat() on list_item and
the current on-filesystem submodule.  We not just know which path we
are interested in, but we already have the cache entry for it, so it
feels quite wasteful to go over the_index.cache[] once again to find
the cache entry that matches list_item->name.  Yes, that is how the
scripted Porcelain did it, but it feels way overkill now we have
ready access to the lower level machinery.

Having said all that, I think it is a good idea to stick to a
faithful conversion in this series.  I just think a NEEDSWORK
comment may be a good idea to indicate future optimization
opportunities.

A similar optimization is already happening in this patch, actually.
Instead of doing a stat of "$sm_path/.git" and checking test -d/-f,
the code just calls is_submodule_initialized().  Which is good ;-)

Likewise.  This is merely resolving a ref inside a submodule;
calling something like head_ref_submodule() may be sufficient
as an optimization and at least deserves to be mentioned in a
NEEDSWORK comment.
