The argument to 'git submodule foreach' already has access to the variables '$path' (the path to the submodule, relative to the superproject) and '$sha1' (the submodule commit recorded by the superproject). This patch adds another variable -- '$name' -- which contains the name of the submodule, as recorded in the superproject's .gitmodules file.
