Worktree icon on child threads in their own worktree #7
Description
Start only after the upstream sync (#5) lands, on top of its Batch 1 sidebar port.
Goal
At a glance, show which child threads work in their own git worktree.
Required behavior
- A child thread (delegated or subagent) bound to a worktree separate from its parent's checkout shows a small worktree icon to the left of its row in the sidebar.
- Children that share the parent's checkout show no icon.
- Ideally the icon's tooltip names the worktree branch.
- Decide whether the same icon belongs on child rows in the lineage panel and the parent's Agents surface.

Also used by #8: subagents tied to issues show this worktree icon when they work in their own worktree.

Started 2026-10-05 (interface-only). The icon will also show on Lineage child rows. Bundled with a new request: subagent and child rows can be dragged onto the open chat's composer to reference them.

Implemented (6b5da9d): a 12 px folder-git icon on child rows working in their own worktree, in the sidebar Projects tree and in Lineage. The row tooltip adds "Worktree: ". Also added: subagent and Lineage rows can be dragged onto the composer as thread references (e527416). Merged into sync/upstream-v2; it ships in the next interface update (reopen the app).

Confirmed working by the user (2026-10-06): child rows in their own worktree show the worktree icon in the sidebar and Lineage.
