Merge pull request #536: Allow --no-src during clones and git worktree after clones

These are two highly-requested items from an internal team considering a
move to Scalar using Azure Repos.

1. Remove the requirement that we create a `src` directory at clone time.

2. Allow `git worktree` even when using the GVFS protocol.

These are not difficult to implement. The `--no-src` option could even
be submitted upstream (though the commit will need to drop one bit about
an interaction with the local cache path).
