Subject: branch: Add an extra verbose output displaying worktree path for refs checked out in a linked worktree

Overlong subject. Perhaps shorten it to:

    branch: display worktree path in -v -v mode

or something, and use the longer description as the rest of the body
of the commit message.

OK

I'm not sure I understand the "not applicable" explanation. When you
say "user's path", do you mean the current working directory? What
happens if the command is invoked from within one of the linked
worktrees (not from within the main worktree)?

I should correct that to say "current worktree" as opposed to main,
since that's what HEAD will give. And yes user's path means cwd. Does
that make more sense?
