submodule: fix 'submodule status' when called from a subdirectory
When calling `git submodule status` while in a subdirectory, we are incorrectly not detecting modified submodules and thus reporting that all of the submodules are unchanged. This is because the submodule helper is calling `diff-index` with the submodule path assuming the path is relative to the current prefix directory, however the submodule path used is actually relative to the root. Always pass NULL as the `prefix` when running diff-files on the submodule, to make sure the submodule's path is interpreted as relative to the superproject's repository root.
