prune: strategies for linked checkouts
(alias R=$GIT_COMMON_DIR/worktrees/<id>) - linked checkouts are supposed to keep its location in $R/gitdir up to date. The use case is auto fixup after a manual checkout move. - linked checkouts are supposed to update mtime of $R/gitdir. If $R/gitdir's mtime is older than a limit, and it points to nowhere, worktrees/<id> is to be pruned. - If $R/locked exists, worktrees/<id> is not supposed to be pruned. If $R/locked exists and $R/gitdir's mtime is older than a really long limit, warn about old unused repo. - "git checkout --to" is supposed to make a hard link named $R/link pointing to the .git file on supported file systems to help detect the user manually deleting the checkout. If $R/link exists and its link count is greated than 1, the repo is kept.
