git-submodule: Instead of using only annotated tags, use any tags.

Some repositories might not use/have annotated tags (for example the
ones created with git-cvsimport) and git-submodule status might fail
because git-describe might fail to find a tag.  This change allows the
status of a submodule to be described/displayed relative to lightweight
tags as well.
