Ashsajal e35f8eb1b7 M8: wait for a recovery folder lock that frees itself (#334)
A child process forked before its exec inherits the run's open descriptors,
and a flock lasts while any descriptor for the file is open. A crashed run
whose folder lock was still held by such a child read as a run that was still
going, so recover_all skipped it and its unsaved documents were not opened at
the next start. The desktop app's tests failed intermittently for the same
reason whenever another test spawned a process in parallel (the reduced-motion
read spawns gsettings on Linux and the BSDs): recovery_tests failed in 23 of
60 runs of the whole binary and never on its own.

Taking a folder's lock now retries try_lock briefly, so a lock that frees
itself is no longer read as a live run while a run that really is running
still keeps its folder.

Regression test: a_lock_freed_a_moment_later_is_not_a_run_that_is_still_going
holds the crashed run's lock on a second descriptor, the way a forked child
does, and frees it shortly after; the copies come back. The recovery tests
that collide with a spawning test went from 8 failures in 10 runs to 0 in 10.
