I figured this one out now: Windows of course refuses to remove some of
the files because they are kept open. This shouldn't lead to a segfault
itself. But we call `free_ref_cache()` on a partially initialized files
ref store, nad that function didn't handle the case when it is being
passed a `NULL` pointer.

I've addressed this by releasing the reftable ref store before trying to
remove it from disk so that all files are being closed. But it also
surfaced another bug: our worktree code creates a copy of the main ref
store by accident because we set up `wt->is_current` _after_ we have
called `get_worktree_ref_store()`.

I fixed all of this and will send a new version in a bit.
