The documentation of git-worktree refers to the 'locked' file as
'lock'. Fix this to say 'locked' instead.

(Documentation/git-worktree: fix incorrect reference to file "locked",

Thanks. I vaguely recall spotting this repetition when preparing to
move this chunk of text from git-checkout.txt to git-worktree.txt[1],
and planned on fixing it in a follow-on patch (such as [2,3,4,5]), but
forgot about it. For what it's worth (though certainly not necessary
for such an obviously correct path):
