Add a helper function to make it clearer that retrieving 'update-clone' configuration from the .gitmodules file is a special case supported solely for backward compatibility purposes. This change removes one direct use of 'config_from_gitmodules' for options not strictly related to submodules: "submodule.fetchjobs" does not describe a property of a submodule, but a behavior of other commands when dealing with submodules, so it does not really belong to the .gitmodules file. This is in the effort to communicate better that .gitmodules is not to be used as a mechanism to store arbitrary configuration in the repository that any command can retrieve.
