Merge branch 'jt/grep-wo-submodule-odb-as-alternate'

The code to make "git grep" recurse into submodules has been
updated to migrate away from the "add submodule's object store as
an alternate object store" mechanism (which is suboptimal).

* jt/grep-wo-submodule-odb-as-alternate:
  t7814: show lack of alternate ODB-adding
  submodule-config: pass repo upon blob config read
  grep: add repository to OID grep sources
  grep: allocate subrepos on heap
  grep: read submodule entry with explicit repo
  grep: typesafe versions of grep_source_init
  grep: use submodule-ODB-as-alternate lazy-addition
  submodule: lazily add submodule ODBs as alternates
