branch -m: update all per-worktree HEADs

When renaming a branch, currently only the HEAD of current working tree
is updated, but it must update HEADs of all working trees which point at
the old branch.

This is the current behavior, /path/to/wt's HEAD is not updated:

  % git worktree list
  /path/to     2c3c5f2 [master]
  /path/to/wt  2c3c5f2 [oldname]
  % git branch -m master master2
  % git worktree list
  /path/to     2c3c5f2 [master2]
  /path/to/wt  2c3c5f2 [oldname]
  % git branch -m oldname newname
  % git worktree list
  /path/to     2c3c5f2 [master2]
  /path/to/wt  0000000 [oldname]

This patch fixes this issue by updating all relevant worktree HEADs
when renaming a branch.
