git-worktree currently conflates branch creation, setting of HEAD in the new worktree, and worktree population into a single sub-invocation of git-checkout, which requires git-checkout to be specially aware that it is operating in a newly-created worktree. The goal is to free git-checkout of that special knowledge, and to do so, git-worktree will eventually perform those operations separately. Thus, as a first step, rather than piggybacking on git-checkout's -b/-B ability to create a new branch at checkout time, make git-worktree responsible for branch creation itself.
