[PATCH v2 1/7] worktree.c: add validate_worktree()

["Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy" <pclouds@gmail.com>]

This function is later used by "worktree move" and "worktree remove"
to ensure that we have a good connection between the repository and
the worktree. For example, if a worktree is moved manually, the
worktree location recorded in $GIT_DIR/worktrees/.../gitdir is
incorrect and we should not move that one.
