Also cleaned up the code, avoiding creating a lock file if we're going to
open it for create later anyway.
And, if there's an exception while preparing to lock the file, but not at
the point of actually taking the lock, throw an exception, instead of
silently not locking and pretending to succeed.
And, on Windows, always use lock file, even if the repo somehow got into
indirect mode (maybe with cygwin git..)
Note that while before checkTransfer this called getLock with WriteLock,
getLockStatus's use of ReadLock will also notice any exclusive locks.
Since transfer info files are only locked exclusively, never shared,
there is no behavior change.
Also, fixes checkLocked to actually return Just False when the file
exists, but is not locked.
Also fixes a test suite failures introduced in recent commits, where
inAnnexSafe failed in indirect mode, since it tried to open the lock file
ReadWrite. This is why the new checkLocked opens it ReadOnly.

Added a convenience Utility.LockFile that is not a windows/posix
portability shim, but still manages to cut down on the boilerplate around
locking.
