Support working trees set up by git-worktree.

Support working trees set up by git-worktree, by setting up some symlinks
such that git-annex links work right.

Also improved support for repositories created with --separate-git-dir.
At least recent git makes a .git file for those (older may have used a
symlink?), so that also needs to be converted to a symlink.

@ -39,6 +39,10 @@ to copy files between the two repos, using space only once. This
works, of course, only on filesystems that support hardlinks, but
that's usually the case for filesystems that support symlinks.
Alternatively, `git worktree` can be used to add another worktree to a git
repository. This way, multiple worktrees can share the same git-annex
object store.
