Update to the "linked checkout" in 2.5.0-rc1.
Instead of "checkout --to" that does not do what "checkout"
normally does, move the functionality to "git worktree add".

"git checkout [<tree-ish>] <paths>" spent unnecessary cycles
checking if the current branch was checked out elsewhere, when we
know we are not switching the branches ourselves.
* nd/multiple-work-trees:
worktree: new place for "git prune --worktrees"
checkout: don't check worktrees when not necessary
This reverts commit 0d1a151783.
When trying to switch to a different branch, that happens to be
checked out in another working tree, the user shouldn't have to
give up the other safety measures (like protecting the local changes
that overlap the difference between the branches) while defeating
the "no two checkouts of the same branch" safety.

As a safeguard, checking out a branch already checked out by a different
worktree is disallowed. This behavior can be overridden with
--ignore-other-worktrees, however, this option is neither obvious nor
particularly discoverable. As a common safeguard override, --force is
more likely to come to mind. Therefore, overload it to also suppress the
check for a branch already checked out elsewhere.

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".

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.)

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.

Due to the (current) absence of a "git worktree lock" command, locking
a worktree's administrative files to prevent automatic pruning is a
manual task, necessarily requiring low-level understanding of linked
worktree functionality. However, this level of detail does not belong
in the high-level DESCRIPTION section, so add a generalized discussion
of locking to DESCRIPTION and move the technical information to DETAILS.

The DESCRIPTION section should provide a high-level overview of linked

makes things much more efficient. But it might be unclear to
