562eebe213 WIP docs/design: describe submodule storage ideas and how to judge them
This doc describes what we need to consider in a submodule storage
solution, some possible solutions and what criteria we should use to
decide on a future direction.

This is still a WIP:

- The solutions are still underdescribed
- The actual evaluation of solutions is missing

Suggestions for the above are welcome :)

707d82245f docs/technical: add aspirational Git submodules doc
This document is meant to be a record of how we think about Git
submodules (and not a _current_ implementation of submodules). We will
fill it out incrementally as we get a clearer idea of what we want
submodules to look like.

As an initial version, I started with (IMO) the least controversial
points:

- We want to support most workflows Git submodules users are accustomed
  to.

- A roadmap that allows us to incrementally roll out Git submodule
  functionality (instead of having to boil the ocean).
