Allow contrib new-workdir to link into bare repositories

On one particular system I like to keep a cluster of bare Git
repositories and spawn new-workdirs off of them.  Since the bare
repositories don't have working directories associated with them
they don't have a .git/ subdirectory that hosts the repository we
are linking to.

Using a bare repository as the backing repository for a workdir
created by this script does require that the user delete core.bare
from the repository's configuration file, so that Git auto-senses
the bareness of a repository based on pathname information, and
not based on the config file.

contrib/workdir: add a simple script to create a working directory

Add a simple script to create a working directory that uses symlinks
to point at an exisiting repository.  This allows having different
branches in different working directories but all from the same
repository.

Based on a description from Junio of how he creates multiple working
directories[1].  With the following caveat:

"This risks confusion for an uninitiated if you update a ref that
is checked out in another working tree, but modulo that caveat
it works reasonably well."
