Nexoniarz 6f3175d8a5 flock, fcntl record locks
There were none: fcntl answered F_SETLK with EINVAL and flock was not a
system call. Alpine's apk, which runs unmodified on SchOS through
Alpine's own musl, locks its database before reading it and stopped
there.

kernel/fs/lock.c keeps one table of advisory locks keyed by (dev, inum):
flock() for the whole file, owned by the open file description;
F_SETLK/F_SETLKW/F_GETLK for byte ranges, owned by the process and
released when it closes any descriptor on the file or exits; and the
F_OFD_* forms, ranges owned by the description. flock and record locks
do not see each other, as on Linux. Waiters sleep until any release and
are interrupted by a signal.

cmd/locktest checks each between a parent and a child, including range
splitting, F_GETLK's report, and a blocked waiter being woken.

shell.nix gains pkg-config, meson, ninja, m4, bison, flex and xz, for
the X ports.
