Earlier 33f072f (submodule sync: Update "submodule.<name>.url" for empty
directories, 2010-10-08) attempted to fix a bug where "git submodule sync"
command does not update the URL if the current superproject does not have
a checkout of the submodule.
However, it did so by unconditionally registering submodule.$name.url to
every submodule in the project, even the ones that the user has never
showed interest in at all by running 'git submodule init' command. This
caused subsequent 'git submodule update' to start cloning/updating submodules
that are not interesting to the user at all.
Update the code so that the URL is updated from the .gitmodules file only
for submodules that already have submodule.$name.url entries, i.e. the
ones the user has showed interested in having a checkout.

If a submodule directory has not been filled by "git submodule update"
yet, then "git submodule sync" must still update the super-project's
configuration for submodule.<name>.url.
This situation occurs when switching between branches with a module from
different urls and other branches without the submodule.

When "git submodule sync" synchronizes the repository URLs
it only updates submodules' .git/config. However, the old
URLs still exist in the super-project's .git/config.
Update the super-project's configuration so that commands
such as "git submodule update" use the URLs from .gitmodules.

This testcase ensures that upstream changes to submodule properties
can be updated using the sync subcommand. This particular test
changes the submodule URL upstream and uses the sync command to update
an existing checkout.
