As a convenience, when <branch> is omitted from "git worktree <path>
<branch>" and neither -b nor -B is used, automatically create a new
branch named after <path>, as if "-b $(basename <path>)" was specified.
Thus, "git worktree add ../hotfix" creates a new branch named "hotfix"
and associates it with new worktree "../hotfix".

As a convenience, like "git branch" and "git checkout -b", make
"git worktree add -b <newbranch> <path> <branch>" default to HEAD when
<branch> is omitted.

A subsequent patch will also need to compute the basename of the new
worktree, so factor out this logic into a new function.

Now that "git worktree add" has achieved user-facing feature-parity with
"git checkout --to", retire the latter.
Move the actual linked worktree creation functionality,
prepare_linked_checkout() and its helpers, verbatim from checkout.c to
worktree.c.
This effectively reverts changes to checkout.c by 529fef2 (checkout:
support checking out into a new working directory, 2014-11-30) with the
exception of merge_working_tree() and switch_branches() which still
require specialized knowledge that a the checkout is occurring in a
newly-created linked worktree (signaled to them by the private
GIT_CHECKOUT_NEW_WORKTREE environment variable).

One of git-worktree's roles is to populate the new worktree, much like
git-checkout, and thus, for convenience, ought to support several of the
same shortcuts. Toward this goal, add -b/-B options to create a new
branch and check it out in the new worktree.
(For brevity, only -b is mentioned in the synopsis; -B is omitted.)

By default, "git worktree add" refuses to create a new worktree when
the requested branch is already checked out elsewhere. Add a --force
option to override this safeguard.

The plan is to relocate "git checkout --to" functionality to "git
worktree add". As a first step, introduce a bare-bones git-worktree
"add" command along with documentation. At this stage, "git worktree
add" merely invokes "git checkout --to" behind the scenes, but an
upcoming patch will move the actual functionality
(checkout.c:prepare_linked_checkout() and its helpers) to worktree.c.

Commit 23af91d (prune: strategies for linked checkouts - 2014-11-30)
adds "--worktrees" to "git prune" without realizing that "git prune" is
for object database only. This patch moves the same functionality to a
new command "git worktree".
