[racket] executable starting in submodule

Sorry for the long delay! I hope this answer is still useful.

Buried in the very long documentation for `create-embedding-executable`
is the note

 When submodules are available and included, the submodule is given a
 name by symbol-appending the write form of submodule path to the
 enclosing module's name.

For example, if "x.rkt" contains

 #lang racket/base
 'not-sub
 (module sub racket/base
   'sub)

then the name you want is '|x(sub)|:

 (create-embedding-executable
  "x"
  #:gracket? #f
  #:verbose? #f
  #:modules '((#f "x.rkt" (sub)))
  #:configure-via-first-module? #t
  #:literal-expression
  (parameterize ([current-namespace (make-base-namespace)])
    (compile `(namespace-require ''|x(sub)|))))
