let gotadmin find the repository automatically if invoked in a work tree

Move a small amount of code from worktree.c to a new file worktree_open.c, which contains everything required to open and close a work tree and inspect some of its basic parameters. This can be used by gotadmin. ok tracey

show commit progress output when 'got merge -c' is used

allow bad symlinks to survive a merge

Commands which perform merges will now install bad symlinks as symlinks in the work tree, instead of creating them as regular files. This means bad symlinks committed with 'got commit -S' (or Git) will be preserved. The decision to introduce a bad symlink is done at commit-time and merges should not forcefully reverse this decision. The cherrypick and backout commands require a manual commit step, and a merge result with bad symlinks will require use of 'got commit -S'. Additional testing by thomas adam

fix 'got update' of an added + obstructed file

When 'got update' tried to add a new file to the work tree and this file was obstructed by, say, a directory on disk, the update failed: $ got update ? new got: new: Is a directory $ And the work tree was not updated. With this commit this situation is properly detected as an obstruction and the update succeeds: $ got update ~ new Updated to refs/heads/master: c1f85b4938dc4c668a88f13df2b98a520fc077cc File paths obstructed by a non-regular file: 1 $ Extend a corresponding test case to cover this issue. ok tracey
