Touching a locked file in a v6 repository follows the symlink and touches
the object file. This makes inAnnex's sameInodeCache fail because the keys
database has a different mtime cached, and so `git annex unlock` doesn't
populate the file with content, but with a pointer file.
Also, `git annex` fsck complains no copies exist even though the symlink is
pointing at a copy.
This seems another reason to not check sameInodeCache for locked content,
along with

Note that after initial `git annex add` into a v6 repository, the keys
database does not have an inode cached. But after an unlock followed by a
lock, it does. So, here's a complete reproducer:
git annex init --version=6
date > file
git annex add file
git annex unlock file
git annex lock file
touch file
git annex unlock file
cat file
