Concurrency with new fine grain locking

After quite some time of concurrent stress testing I could not get the
latest Slide from CVS with the fine grained locks to hang or fail in
any way. This looks fine :)

Compared to the previous WebDAV level locks as used in 2.1 these locks
allow concurrent modification and reading of unrelated folders. E.g.
if you have something like

/files/col1

and 

/files/col2

you can have two put requests to each collection without blocking one
another. This was impossible with the old locking.

As with the full locking there is no hazard of deadlocks either...
