worktree add: shouldn't dwim if -b or -B is given

'git worktree add <path> <branch>' DWIMs <branch> to a
remote-tracking branch when neither -b, -B, nor --detach
is given.

However, 'git worktree add -b <new-branch> <path> <branch>' can
still DWIM <branch>, causing <new-branch> to be ignored.  This is a
regression introduced by 128e5496b3 (worktree add: extend DWIM to
infer --orphan, 2023-05-17), which appeared in Git 2.42.
