Previously the exit status of git submodule was zero for various
subcommands even though the user specified an unknown path.

The reason behind that was that they all pipe the output of module_list
into the while loop which then does the action on the paths specified by
the commandline. Since the exit code of piped commands is ignored by the
shell, the status code of module_list was swallowed.

In case ls-files returns with an error code we pipe a special string
that is not possible in non error situations. If the perl filter behind
that encounters this string it outputs a single line with the special
tag '#unmatched'. This is then used by all reader from module_list to
die with an error code.

The error message that there is an unmatched pathspec comes through
stderr directly from ls-files. So the user still gets a hint whats going
on.

Hi Junio,

this is an updated version with your proposal incorporated. I changed
the name of check_unmatched to die_if_unmatched because IMO it describes
more clearly what the function is doing.

Cheers Heiko
