Hmph, why do I think I've seen this before in the previous patch?

    ... scans through this patch and finds that a similar one is
    removed ;-)

OK.  This makes sense.

I think you meant well, but this optimization is wrong.  A mere
presence of an object does not mean that the current tip can reach
that object.  Imagine you pushed commit A earlier to them at the
tip, then pushed commit A~ to them at the tip, which is the current
state of the remote of the submodule, and since them they may have
GC'ed.  They no longer have the commit A.

For that matter, because you are doing this check by pretending as
if all the submodule objects are in the object store of the current
superproject you are working in, and saying "it exists there in the
submodule repository" when the only thing you know is it exists in
an object store of either the submodule repository, the superproject
repository, or any of the other submodule repositories, you really
cannot tell much from a mere presence of an object.  Not just the
remote of the submodule repository you are interested in, but the
submodule repository you are interested in itself, may not have that
object.

Drop the previous two helper functions and this short-cut.

Good.  This is the optimization I alluded to in the review of the
first one in the series.
