maintenance: take a lock on the objects directory

Browse Source 
Performing maintenance on a Git repository involves writing data to the
.git directory, which is not safe to do with multiple writers attempting
the same operation. Ensure that only one 'git maintenance' process is
running at a time by holding a file-based lock. Simply the presence of
the .git/maintenance.lock file will prevent future maintenance. This
lock is never committed, since it does not represent meaningful data.
Instead, it is only a placeholder.

If the lock file already exists, then no maintenance tasks are
attempted. This will become very important later when we implement the
'prefetch' task, as this is our stop-gap from creating a recursive process
loop between 'git fetch' and 'git maintenance run --auto'.
