06c2afc13a Add locking.9
This is supposed to be a brief overview of the locking primatives.
It is not yet complete and contains many place-holders for information
I do not know.

The locking is getting so diverse that I've lost track of it all.
We need this page to keep outselves in sync with what the primitives do.

note.. not part of the build yet.
