Makefile: git submodules should track remotes.
Instead of binding git submodules to a specific commit, track
their remote origins at `make submodules-init`.
This introduces the risk of upstream changes breaking our patches
more frequently (used to be whenever we bumped submodules by hand),
and requiring rebasing, but that already happens for Fuel@OPNFV.
This represents a major improvement in tracking upstream and moving
away from forking, at the expense of more frequent rebasing, until
we upstream or move to post-installation step all our patches.
For example, since we rebased our modules 1-2 weeks ago, quite
a few patches landed upstream (e.g. [1]) that we missed in our builds.
