Update internal filesystem layout for submodules

Browse source 
Change the bare checkout directory for submodules from 'subprojects'
to 'modules'. Git expects bare submodule checkouts to be in the
'modules' directory. If old subproject directories are found, they
will be migrated to the new modules directory. This change is the
first step in ensuring Git can understand repo's submodules to some
extent.

(e.g. a local mirror & a public review server) while avoiding duplicating
the content. However, this can run into problems if different remotes use
the same path on their respective servers. Best to avoid that.
* `subprojects/`: Like `projects/`, but for git submodules.
* `modules/`: Like `projects/`, but for git submodules.
* `subproject-objects/`: Like `project-objects/`, but for git submodules.
* `worktrees/`: Bare checkouts of every project synced by the manifest. The
filesystem layout matches the `<project name=...` setting in the manifest
