The "per-worktree ref" entry says that these are only HEAD and refs
under "refs/bisect/", but that has been out of date since a9be29c981
(sequencer: make refs generated by the `label` command worktree-local,
2018-04-25). All root refs are per-worktree, as are refs under
"refs/worktree/" and "refs/rewritten/". Pseudorefs are specific to each
worktree too.
Bring the list up to date, and refer to git-worktree(1) for how to
access per-worktree refs of other worktrees. In the "worktree" entry,
describe HEAD as a per-worktree ref and MERGE_HEAD as a pseudoref,
rather than listing them separately from per-worktree refs.
