    Add flag to write gitlink on setting repo workdir
    
    This added a flag to the `git_repository_set_workdir()` function
    that enables generation of a `.git` gitlink file that links the
    new workdir to the parent repository.  Essentially, the flag tells
    the function to write out the changes to disk to permanently set
    the workdir of the repository to the new path.
    
    If you pass this flag as true, then setting the workdir to something
    other than the default workdir (i.e. the parent of the .git repo
    directory), will create a plain file named ".git" with the standard
    gitlink contents "gitdir: <repo-path>", and also update the
    "core.worktree" and "core.bare" config values.
    
    Setting the workdir to the default repo workdir will clear the
    core.worktree flag (but still permanently set core.bare to false).
    
    BTW, the libgit2 API does not currently provide a function for
    clearing the workdir and converting a non-bare repo into a bare one.
