fetch_populated_submodules() allocates the full argv array it uses to
recurse into the submodules from the number of given options plus the six
argv values it is going to add. It then initializes it with those values
which won't change during the iteration and copies the given options into
it. Inside the loop the two argv values different for each submodule get
replaced with those currently valid.

However, this technique is brittle and error-prone (as the comment to
explain the magic number 6 indicates), so let's replace it with an
argv_array. Instead of replacing the argv values, push them to the
argv_array just before the run_command() call (including the option
separating them) and pop them from the argv_array right after that.

Maybe something like this on top of your two patches?

I thought about adding an argv_array_cat() function to replace the
for() loop copying the option values into the argv-array built inside
fetch_populated_submodules(), but I suspect saving one line from the
code is not worth it. Yet I didn't check if others would benefit from
such a function too.
