Fix reversion introduced in 6.20171214 that caused concurrent transfers to incorrectly fail with "transfer already in progress".

Browse source 
Avoid creating transfer info file before transfer lock is created and
locked.

The wrong order for one thing caused transfer info to be overwritten
when a transfer was already in progress.

But worse, it caused checkTransfer to see the transfer info,
and so lock the transfer lock in order to verify the transfer was not in
progress. Which in a concurrent situation, prevented the transferrer
from locking the transfer lock, so it failed with "transfer already in
progress".

Note that the transferinfo command does not lock the transfer lock
before creating the transfer info. But, that's only run after
recvkey is running, and recvkey does lock the transfer lock, so that
seems more or less ok. (Other than being a super complicated legacy mess
that the P2P code has mostly obsoleted now.)

Ok, fixed the reversion in a fairly decent way,
verified with 1000 files and -J10.
