You and Eric will have to settle this. It was done lazily in v2, but
Eric convinced me this lock thing will be needed for many worktree
commands (list, lock, unlock, move, remove and maybe even prune) that
it makes more sense to make it a field in struct worktree instead. For
a dozen worktrees, it does not really matter. But get_worktrees() is
also being used outside "git worktree" command, some of those new
callers may get picky. Maybe a common ground is adding a flag to
get_worktrees() to select what fields to be filled?
