init: teach --separate-git-dir to repair linked worktrees
A linked worktree's .git file is a "gitfile" pointing at the
.git/worktrees/<id> directory within the repository. When `git init
--separate-git-dir=<path>` is used on an existing repository to relocate
the repository's .git/ directory to a different location, it neglects to
update the .git files of linked worktrees, thus breaking the worktrees
by making it impossible for them to locate the repository. Fix this by
teaching --separate-git-dir to repair the .git file of each linked
worktree to point at the new repository location.
