wt-status: use capture_command
When we spawn "git submodule status" to read its output, we
use run_command() followed by strbuf_read() read from the
pipe. This can deadlock if the subprocess output is larger
than the system pipe buffer.
Furthermore, if start_command() fails, we'll try to read
from a bogus descriptor (probably "-1" or a descriptor we
just closed, but it is a bad idea for us to make assumptions
about how start_command implements its error handling). And
if start_command succeeds, we leak the file descriptor for
the pipe to the child.
All of these can be solved by using the capture_command
helper.
