submodule: suppress checking for file name and ref ambiguity for object ids

The argv argument of collect_changed_submodules() contains only object ids
(the objects references of all the refs).

Notify setup_revisions() that the input is not filenames by passing
assume_dashdash, so it can avoid redundant stat for each ref.

Also suppress refname_ambiguity flag to avoid filesystem lookups for
each object. Similar logic can be found in cat-file, pack-objects and more.

This change reduces the time for git fetch in my repo from 25s to 6s.
