If the app assets is loading from external `source_url`, if the app tries to require its
sub modules directly it will fail and the app won't load at all.
Changing the module name to its external `source_url` as what Monster UI core was
previously doing won't always work in case the sub modules were small enough and optimized
away in a single file as `app.js`. This has been observed with `branding` and
`call-recording` apps so far.
Instead we can explicitly config the paths for sub module and its external source url for
`requirejs` to load it, if it is not already optimized in the `app.js`.
Without this change, because `app.js` is requiring the submodules, this URL will be used
instead of external source_url:
```
http://{monster_ui_url}/apps/:appname/submodules/{submodule}/{submodule}.js
```
`requireSubModule` from `monster.apps.js` will require all submodules
defined on the app and can adds external `source_url` of the sub module in requirejs
config so the correct URL will be used for fetch if it is needed:
```
http://{app_metadata.source_url}/submodules/{submodule}/{submodule}.js
```
