"git worktree list" porcelain format shows one attribute per line, each attribute is listed with a label and value separated by a single space. If any worktree is locked, a "locked" attribute is listed followed by the reason, if available, otherwise only "locked" is shown. In case the lock reason contains newline characters (i.e: LF or CRLF) this will cause the format to break as each line should correspond to one attribute. This leads to unwanted behavior, specially as the porcelain is intended to be machine-readable. To address this shortcoming let's teach "git worktree list" to escape any newline character before outputting the locked reason for porcelain format.
