I think we'd actually do it all in one, and that patch looks something
like the one below (on top of jk/submodule-config-sanitize-fix).
I don't feel that strongly about going either direction with this, but I
figure it doesn't hurt to make the patch so we know what the actual
option looks like.

Subject: [PATCH] submodule: stop sanitizing config options
The point of having a whitelist of command-line config
options to pass to submodules was two-fold:
1. It prevented obvious nonsense like using core.worktree
for multiple repos.
2. It could prevent surprise when the user did not mean
for the options to leak to the submodules (e.g.,
http.sslverify=false).
For case 1, the answer is mostly "if it hurts, don't do
that". For case 2, we can note that any such example has a
matching inverted surprise (e.g., a user who meant
http.sslverify=true to apply everywhere, but it didn't).
So this whitelist is probably not giving us any benefit, and
is already creating a hassle as people propose things to put
on it. Let's just drop it entirely.
Note that we still need to keep a special code path for
"prepare the submodule environment", because we still have
to take care to pass through $GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS (and
block the rest of the repo-specific environment variables).
We can do this easily from within the submodule shell
script, which lets us drop the submodule--helper option
entirely (and it's OK to do so because as a "--" program, it
is entirely a private implementation detail).
