use lock pools throughout git-annex
The one exception is in Utility.Daemon. As long as a process only daemonizes once, which seems reasonable, and as long as it avoids calling checkDaemon once it's already running as a daemon, the fcntl locking gotchas won't be a problem there. Annex.LockFile has it's own separate lock pool layer, which has been renamed to LockCache. This is a persistent cache of locks that persist until closed. This is not quite done; lockContent stil needs to be converted.
