I'm not opposed to letting one worktree see everything, but this move
makes it harder to write new scripts (or new builtin commands, even)
that works with both single and multiple worktrees because you refer
to one ref (in current worktree perspective) differently. If we kill
of the main worktree (i.e. git init always creates a linked worktree)
then it's less of a problem, but still a nuisance to write
refs/worktree/$CURRENT/<something> everywhere.
