There are a bunch of tests which do not have any leaks:
- t0411: Introduced via 5c5a4a1c05 (t0411: add tests for cloning from
partial repo, 2024-01-28), passes since its inception.
- t0610: Introduced via 57db2a094d (refs: introduce reftable backend,
2024-02-07), passes since its inception.
- t2405: Passes since 6741e917de (repository: avoid leaking
`fsmonitor` data, 2024-04-12).
- t7423: Introduced via b20c10fd9b (t7423: add tests for symlinked
submodule directories, 2024-01-28), passes since e8d0608944
(submodule: require the submodule path to contain directories only,
2024-03-26). The fix is not obviously related, but probably works
because we now die early in many code paths.
- t9xxx: All of these are exercising CVS-related tooling and pass
since at least Git v2.40. It's likely that these pass for a long
time already, but nobody ever noticed because Git developers do not
tend to have CVS on their machines.
Mark all of these tests as passing.

Submodules are stored in subdirectories of their superproject. When
these subdirectories have been replaced with symlinks by a malicious
actor, all kinds of mayhem can be caused.
This _should_ not be possible, but many CVEs in the past showed that
_when_ possible, it allows attackers to slip in code that gets executed
during, say, a `git clone --recursive` operation.
Let's add some defense-in-depth to disallow submodule paths to have
anything except directories in them.

Submodule operations must not follow symlinks in working tree, because
otherwise files might be written to unintended places, leading to
vulnerabilities.
