Add atomicity support to fshelp_acquire_lock
This adds support for the __LOCK_ATOMIC flag which requests atomicity of SH->EX upgrades and EX->SH downgrades. * libfshelp/lock-acquire.c (__LOCK_ATOMIC): New macro (fshelp_acquire_lock): When __LOCK_ATOMIC is set, do not release the lock early, change the lock hold atomically instead. On upgrade to LOCK_EX, prevent new shared locks from being acquired to avoid starvation.
