Subject: [PATCH] Add a worktree loader test for being in a submodule

A submodule's git dir doesn't live inside its working tree, and `git
worktree list` reports it by its git dir. Lazygit compares that against
the working tree path, so it recognizes neither the current nor the main
worktree, and the UI ends up claiming we're in a linked worktree.
