git-worktree.txt: discuss branch-based vs. throwaway worktrees

By default, `git worktree add` creates a new worktree associated with a
particular branch (which may have been created automatically if not
specified explicitly on the command-line). It is also convenient to
create throwaway worktrees not associated with any branch, which can be
handy when making experimental changes or doing testing. However, the
latter use-case may not be obvious to newcomers since the high-level
description of worktrees talks only about checking out "more than one
branch at a time". Therefore, enhance the description to to discuss both
use-cases.

A secondary goal of highlighting the distinction between branch-based
and throwaway worktrees is to help newcomers understand that the
simplest form `git worktree add <path>` automatically creates a new
branch. Stating this early in the description, may help newcomers avoid
creating branches without realizing they are doing so, and later
wondering why `git branch --list` shows branches the user did not
intentionally create.

+In its simplest form, `git worktree add <path>` automatically creates a

+worktree add ../hotfix` creates new branch `hotfix` and checks it out at

 If a working tree is deleted without using `git worktree remove`, then
 its associated administrative files, which reside in the repository
 (see "DETAILS" below), will eventually be removed automatically (see
