[arch-projects] [devtools] [PATCH 8/9] lib/common.sh: Improve lock() and slock().

There are 3 things of note here:

 - Pass extra arguments to stat_busy, to allow it to take printf-type
   messages.
 - Check to make sure that process doesn't already own the lock.  The code
   for this is mostly taken from mkarchroot; the logic had been dropped
   when the functions were pulled into common.sh
 - The old mkarchroot code used `readlink -f` on the file in /dev/fd to
   resolve symlinks.  This didn't work correctly if there is a symlink
   in the path of the lock file.  One solution would have been to use
   `readlink -f` on both files, but it is simpler to use `[[ a -ef b ]]`.
