The job command previously discarded --use-git-clone and --submodules
(`del`) and always in-guest cloned with submodules off — making both
action inputs dead no-ops (submodule repos silently broken).
- job.py: --use-git-clone/--host-clone and --submodules/--no-submodules
are real booleans defaulting to ON. Default = in-guest clone with
submodules. --host-clone clones on the host into a temp dir
(_host_clone) and transfers a zip; temp dir cleaned in finally.
clone_submodules now honoured (was hardcoded False).
- action.yml: use-git-clone / submodules default 'true'; forward the
explicit positive/negative flag so the Python default is overridden
deterministically.
- self-test.yml: add smoke-{windows,linux}-hostclone jobs covering the
host-side transport (default jobs already cover in-guest).
- tests: default-transport, host-clone, and --no-submodules coverage.
