Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing submodule API surface and the linked libgit2 documentation for git_submodule_branch(). Confirm how branch attributes in .gitmodules should be exposed through the C# API. Done means callers can retrieve those attributes through a supported git_submodule_branch() API.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
