Git learned pushing submodules without pushing the superproject by
the user specifying --recurse-submodules=only through 6c656c3fe4
("submodules: add RECURSE_SUBMODULES_ONLY value", 2016-12-20) and
225e8bf778 ("push: add option to push only submodules", 2016-12-20).
For users who use this feature regularly, it is desirable to have an
equivalent configuration.
It turns out that such a configuration (push.recurseSubmodules=only) is
already supported, even though it is neither documented nor mentioned
in the commit messages, due to the way the --recurse-submodules=only
feature was implemented (a function used to parse --recurse-submodules
was updated to support "only", but that same function is used to parse
push.recurseSubmodules too). What is left is to document it and test it,
which is what this commit does.
There is a possible point of confusion when recursing into a submodule
that itself has the push.recurseSubmodules=only configuration, because
if a repository has only its submodules pushed and not itself, its
superproject can never be pushed. Therefore, treat such configurations
as being "on-demand", and print a warning message.

Various tests exercising the transfer.credentialsInUrl configuration
are taught to avoid making requests which require resolving localhost
to reduce CI-flakiness.
* jk/avoid-localhost:
t5516/t5601: be less strict about the number of credential warnings
t5516: move plaintext-password tests from t5601 and t5516
It is unclear as to _why_, but under certain circumstances the warning
about credentials being passed as part of the URL seems to be swallowed
by the `git remote-https` helper in the Windows jobs of Git's CI builds.
Since it is not actually important how many times Git prints the
warning/error message, as long as it prints it at least once, let's just
make the test a bit more lenient and test for the latter instead of the
former, which works around these CI issues.

Commit 6dcbdc0d66 (remote: create fetch.credentialsInUrl config,
2022-06-06) added tests for our handling of passwords in URLs. Since the
obvious URL to be affected is git-over-http, the tests use http. However
they don't set up a test server; they just try to access
https://localhost, assuming it will fail (because the nothing is
listening there).
This causes some possible problems:
- There might be a web server running on localhost, and we do not
actually want to connect to that.
- The DNS resolver, or the local firewall, might take a substantial
amount of time (or forever, whichever comes first) to fail to
connect, slowing down the tests cases unnecessarily.
- Since there's no server, our tests for "allow" and "warn" still
expect the clone/fetch/push operations to fail, even though in the
real world we'd expect these to succeed. We scrape stderr to see
what happened, but it's not as robust as a more realistic test.
Let's instead move these to t5551, which is all about testing http and
where we have a real server. That eliminates any issues with contacting
a strange URL, and lets the "allow" and "warn" tests confirm that the
operation actually succeeds.
It's not quite a verbatim move for a few reasons:
- we can drop the LIBCURL dependency; it's already part of
lib-httpd.sh
- we'll use HTTPD_URL_USER_PASS, etc, instead of our fake URL. To
avoid repetition, we'll add a few extra variables.
- the "https://username:@localhost" test uses a funny URL that
lib-httpd.sh doesn't provide. We'll similarly construct it in a
variable. Note that we're hard-coding the lib-httpd username here,
but t5551 already does that everywhere.
- for the "domain:port" test, the URL provided by lib-httpd is fine,
since our test server will always be on an exotic port. But we'll
confirm in the test that this is so.
- since our message-matching is done via grep, I simplified it to use
a regex, rather than trying to massage lib-httpd's variables.
Arguably this makes it more readable, too, while retaining the bits
we care about: the fatal/warning distinction, the "uses plaintext"
message, and the fact that the password was redacted.
- we'll use the /auth/ path for the repo, which shows that we are
indeed making use of the auth information when needed.
- we'll also use /smart/; most of these tests could be done via /dumb/
in t5550, but setting up pushes there requires extra effort and
dependencies. The smart protocol is what most everyone is using
these days anyway.
This patch is my own, but I stole the analysis and a few bits of the
commit message from a patch by Johannes Schindelin.
