Worktree pickers are usually scanned by branch identity rather than by filesystem path. Move branch labels ahead of paths and allow them to grow to their full width when the picker has spare space, while keeping paths available as secondary context.

Problem
The worktree picker still treated paths as the primary display field, which meant long branch names could stay truncated even in wide pickers and the row order did not match how people usually identify worktrees.
Solution
Move branch labels ahead of paths in worktree rows and allow branch labels to grow to their full width when the picker has spare space. Keep paths as secondary context and add regression coverage for the reordered rows and wide-picker branch expansion.
