Patch to add EGIT_HAS_SUBMODULES to gnome-contacts ebuild

Hi-
    =gnome-extra/gnome-contacts-9999 (in the GNOME overlay) fails to merge due to an uninitialized submodule in the main repo (git://git.gnome.org/gnome-contacts.git).  It includes libgd, which I'm told is still largely meant to be distributed with individual source packages and not linked to from some central location.
    What I suggest is adding EGIT_HAS_SUBMODULES to the ebuild.  A patch (generated ebuild merges successfully) is attached.

                -Robin K.
