Perhaps the destination should be worktrees/[worktree]/refs/bisect/*.
Does it have to start with "refs/"?

For multiple wortrees, first we basically remap paths in .git,
relocate some to worktrees/[worktree]/ (already done), then we're
going to remap config keys (submodule support, just proof of concept
so far), remapping ref paths sounds like the logical next step if some
under refs/ needs to be worktree-specific. I wonder if current ref
namespace code could be extended to do this?
