[PATCH v3] worktree add: shouldn't dwim if -b or -B is given

From: Yoichi NAKAYAMA <[email protected]>

'git worktree add <path> <branch>' DWIMs <branch> to a
remote-tracking branch when neither -b, -B, nor --detach
is given.

However, 'git worktree add -b <new-branch> <path> <branch>' can
still DWIM <branch>, causing <new-branch> to be ignored.

This is a regression introduced in v2.42.0
(128e5496b325640f0a09cc1d5b1e346c069b410f).
