am: add t4255 for submodule updates

Test that the am command updates the work tree as expected (for submodule changes which don't result in conflicts). To make that work add two helper functions that use format-patch to create the input for am. Add the KNOWN_FAILURE_NOFF_MERGE_ATTEMPTS_TO_MERGE_REMOVED_SUBMODULE_FILES switch to expect the known failure that --no-ff merges attempt to merge the new files in the former submodule directory with those of the removed submodule.
