This regression was introduced in 74703a1e (submodule: rewrite
`module_list` shell function in C, 2015-09-02), as we changed the
order of checking in new module listing to first check whether it is
a gitlin before feeding it to match_pathspec().  It used to be that
a pathspec that does not match any path were diagnosed as an error,
but the new code complains for a pathspec that does not match any
submodule path.

Arguably the new behaviour may give us a better diagnosis, but that
is inconsistent with the suggestion "deinit" gives, and also this
was an unintended accident.  The new behaviour hopefully can be
redesigned and implemented better in future releases, but for now,
switch these two checks to restore the same behavior as before.  In
an empty repository, giving the pathspec '.' will still get the same
"did not match" error, but that is the same bug we had before 1.7.0.
