Subject: [PATCH] submodule: fix sync handling of some relative superproject
 origin URLs

When the origin URL of the superproject is itself relative, git submodule sync
configures the remote.origin.url configuration property of the submodule
with a path that is relative to the work tree of the superproject
rather than the work tree of the submodule.

To fix this an 'up_path' that navigates from the work tree of the submodule
to the work tree of the superproject needs to be prepended to the URL
otherwise calculated.

Correct handling of superproject origin URLs like foo, ./foo and ./foo/bar is
left to a subsequent patch since an additional change is required to handle
these cases.

The documentation of resolve_relative_url() is expanded to give a more thorough
description of the function's objective.

-# Resolve relative url by appending to parent's url
+# The function takes at most 2 arguments. The first argument is the
+# URL that navigates to the submodule origin repo. When relative, this URL
+# is relative to the superproject origin URL repo. The second up_path
+# argument, if specified, is the relative path that navigates
+# from the submodule working tree to the superproject working tree.
+#
+# The output of the function is the origin URL of the submodule.
+#
+# The output will either be an absolute URL or filesystem path (if the
+# superproject origin URL is an absolute URL or filesystem path,
+# respectively) or a relative file system path (if the superproject
+# origin URL is a relative file system path).
+#
+# When the output is a relative file system path, the path is either
+# relative to the submodule working tree, if up_path is specified, or to
+# the superproject working tree otherwise.
