Currently there is no indication in the "git worktree add" output that
a new branch was created.  This would be especially useful information
in the case where the dwim of "git worktree add <path>" kicks in, as the
user didn't explicitly ask for a new branch, but we create one from
them.

Print some additional output showing that a branch was created and the
branch name to help the user.

The "creating" message is missing a newline, which results in rather
ugly output:

    creating new branch 'foo'worktree HEAD is now at ...

Also, I believe that the agreement[1] was that this message should say
merely "creating branch", not "creating _new_ branch". And, indeed,
patch 4/4 stealthily drops "new" from the message, but it really ought
to be introduced with correct text in this patch, not fixed by 4/4.

Ah yeah thanks for catching those, will fix.
