checkout: support checking out into a new working directory
"git checkout --to" sets up a new working directory with a .git file
pointing to $GIT_DIR/worktrees/<id>. It then executes "git checkout"
again on the new worktree with the same arguments except "--to" is
taken out. The second checkout execution, which is not contaminated
with any info from the current repository, will actually check out and
everything that normal "git checkout" does.
