Changes in v4 from the cover letter

* Instead of duplicating the path when it has a .lock suffix, we now use strbuf manipulation to strip the suffix temporarily.
* The test case in t1500 was scrapped in favor of a much simpler pair of test cases in t0060.

Cover letter [PATCH v4 0/2] Handle git_path() with lock files correctly in worktrees

I stumbled over this during my recent work in Git GUI
[https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/361] that was originally really only intended to use the correct hooks directory.

It turns out that my fears that index.lock was mishandled were unfounded, hence this patch series has a lot lower priority for me than "OMG we must push this into v2.24.0!".

Technically, the first patch is not needed (because I decided against adding a test to t1400 in the end, in favor of t1500), but it shouldn't hurt, either.

I verified locally that this patch pair does not conflict with sg/dir-trie-fixes.

Changes since v3:

* Instead of duplicating the path when it has a .lock suffix, we now use strbuf manipulation to strip the suffix temporarily.
* The test case in t1500 was scrapped in favor of a much simpler pair of test cases in t0060.

Changes since v2:

* Adjusted the commit message to really not talk about index.lock.
* Instead of modifying the code inside trie_find() to special-case .lock, I now copy the string without the suffix .lock (if any) before handing it off to trie_find().

Changes since v1:

* Clarified the commit message to state that index.lock is fine, it is logs/HEAD.lock that isn't.
