Documentation/gitsubmodules.txt: avoid non-ASCII apostrophesms/non-ascii-ticks

In gitsubmodules.txt, a few non-ASCII apostrophes are used to spell
possessive, e.g. "submodule's".  These unfortunately are not
rendered at https://git-scm.com/docs/gitsubmodules correctly by the
renderer used there.

Use ASCII apostrophes instead to work around the problem.  It also
is good to be consistent, as there are possessives spelled with
ASCII apostrophes.
