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.
