checkout: refer to other-worktree branch, not ref
We can only check out commits or branches, not refs in general. And the problem here is if another worktree is using the branch that we want to check out. Let’s be more direct and just talk about branches instead of refs. Also replace “be held” with “in use”. Further, “in use” is not restricted to a branch being checked out (e.g. the branch could be busy on a rebase), hence generalize to “or otherwise in use” in the option description.
