[PATCH v4 0/3] worktree: teach add to accept --reason with --lock

["Stephen Manz via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

The default reason stored in the lock file, "added with --lock", is unlikely
to be what the user would have given in a separate git worktree lock
command. Allowing --reason to be specified along with --lock when adding a
working tree gives the user control over the reason for locking without
needing a second command.

Changes since v3:

 * Updated test to define a shell variable, lock_reason, set to "why not".
   Expand the variable to use with --reason and to echo to file, expected.
   This avoids the spacing comment made by Eric Sunshine.

Changes since v2:

 * Updated first of the 3 commits to include a step in the test to unlock
   the worktree when test completes and modified commit message accordingly.
 * Updated second commit to wrap "initializing" string with _() to mark it
   for translation, as requested. I had originally opted not to mark it,
   since, when --lock is not given, file locked gets removed after the
   working tree is populated. Thus, it's not really user-facing. Modified
   the commit message accordingly.
 * Updated the third commit to have no new lock_reason member of struct
   add_opts and changed type of member keep_locked from int to const char *,
   as suggested.

The file, .git/worktrees/name-of-worktree/locked, is created even if --lock
isn't given, although only temporarily. In this instance, "initializing" is
written to the file, but the file is removed at the end of the add-worktree
operation. My goal was to maintain this behavior and is the reason my
post-parsing code doesn't quite match the suggested patch.

Changes since v1:

 * Split changes into 3 commits. The first commit is removal of git
   rev-parse in the test above the ones I'm adding. The second is wrapping
   the "added with --lock" string with _() to mark it for translation. The
   third commit is the main change.
 * Reworked the if-else-if-else to if-else if-else
 * Added test_when_finished ... command to unlock the working tree
 * Changed test_expect_failure to test_expect_success and embedded
   test_must_fail and test_path_is_missing commands

Note: I don't see how to disambiguate --lock with no --reason from no --lock
at all. I still think that the original keep_locked boolean is needed along
with the new lock_reason char array. If I don't add lock_reason and change
keep_locked to a char array, it will start as NULL. But it will remain NULL
if --lock alone is given or if --lock isn't given at all.
