AutoInstall should not redownload packages for every git worktree

Reviewed by Jonathan Bedard.
When using git worktrees, each worktree redownloads its own copy of
autoinstalled third-party Python packages to its local
`Tools/Scripts/libraries/autoinstalled/` directory. This causes
unnecessary network traffic and disk usage.
The fix detects when running in a git worktree using
`git rev-parse --git-common-dir` and shares the main repository's
autoinstalled packages directory. Development libraries (webkitcorepy,
webkitscmpy, webkitbugspy) still load from the worktree itself, so
in-development features work correctly.
No new tests since this change is not directly testable.
* Tools/Scripts/webkitpy/__init__.py:
- Use main repo's autoinstalled path when running in a git worktree.
(_get_main_repo_autoinstall_path):
- Add function to detect git worktree and return main repo's
autoinstalled path if it exists and is writable.
