[PATCH 1/2] worktree: don't read out of bounds

From: =?UTF-8?q?Matthias=20A=C3=9Fhauer?= <[email protected]>

`worktree_basename` tries to read from memory before the passed `path`
string, if `path` is empty (or only consists of directory separators).
That results in unexpected nonsense data being returned to the caller,
which can lead to issues, such as `git worktree add ""` recursively
deleting the current working directory, including `.git`.

Stop reading out of bounds in these cases to avoid that behaviour.

This leads to `git worktree add ""` consistently exiting with the
message `BUG: How come '' becomes empty after sanitization?`, which is
still undesirable, but at least it doesn't result in data loss anymore.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/6346
