I am very surprised that a new call to this function is added here.

As the "You are in middle of" information is useful mostly when you are on
detached head, I would have expected that the call would be inside the
if/elif chain near the top of wt_status_print() where we say "On branch"
vs "Not currently on...", to replace that information that comes from that
on_what variable.
