The subject is a bit cryptic (specifically the first part before the
colon), maybe
t7406: compare entire submodule status for --reset-hard mode
?

"original state" can mean different things to different people. I'd think
we could be more precise:
... we should get to the state that the submodule is reset to the
object id as the superprojects gitlink points at, irrespective of the
submodule branch.

The tests look good to me, though I wonder if we'd rather want to inline
{record/compare}_submodule_status as then you'd not need to look it up
and the functions are rather short?
