Worktrees now live outside the repository under a central ~/.workstreams/ directory. This eliminates .gitignore management, git-in-git nesting, and gives VS Code a proper project name in the title bar. Structure: ~/.workstreams/<repoName>/<branchName>/<repoName>/ Metadata: ~/.workstreams/<repoName>/<branchName>/workstream.json Comments: ~/.workstreams/<repoName>/<branchName>/comments.json Images: ~/.workstreams/<repoName>/<branchName>/images/ Bumps version to 0.2.15.
Worktrees under ~/.workstreams/ are managed by the orchestrator and should bypass the workspace trust dialog. Adds an isWorkstreamsWorktree check in doGetUriTrustInfo so all trust lookups (folder swap, git extension) resolve as trusted for these paths.
Comments were keyed by worktree.name (display name like "Update worktree directory") instead of worktree.branch (git branch like "update-worktree-directory"). This caused comments to be saved in a different directory than branchDir() uses for metadata, and would orphan comments if the display name ever changed.

The git extension auto-discovers worktree repos under ~/.workstreams/ and registers them as separate SCM providers. Skip these unless the repo is the current workspace folder (the active worktree).
Tests do heavy git I/O (create repos, worktrees, remotes, push) which can exceed the default 2s mocha timeout.
