fastannotate: remove support for flock() locking

We've seen enough weirdness in CI with flock for remotefilelog that
I'm now of the opinion we should just stop using flock() everywhere
until someone has a concrete need for the extra performance *and* a
way to only use it when safe (even if that's just default-to-off.)

# fastannotate: faster annotate implementation using linelog

"""yet another annotate implementation that might be faster (EXPERIMENTAL)

The fastannotate extension provides a 'fastannotate' command that makes
use of the linelog data structure as a cache layer and is expected to
be faster than the vanilla 'annotate' if the cache is present.

In most cases, fastannotate requires a setup that mainbranch is some pointer
that always moves forward, to be most efficient.

Using fastannotate together with linkrevcache would speed up building the
annotate cache greatly. Run "debugbuildlinkrevcache" before
"debugbuildannotatecache".

::

    [fastannotate]
    # specify the main branch head. the internal linelog will only contain
    # the linear (ignoring p2) "mainbranch". since linelog cannot move
    # backwards without a rebuild, this should be something that always moves
    # forward, usually it is "master" or "@".
    mainbranch = master

    # fastannotate supports different modes to expose its feature.
    # a list of combination:
    # - fastannotate: expose the feature via the "fastannotate" command which
    #   deals with everything in a most efficient way, and provides extra
    #   features like --deleted etc.
    # - fctx: replace fctx.annotate implementation. note:
    #     a. it is less efficient than the "fastannotate" command
    #     b. it will make it practically impossible to access the old (disk
    #        side-effect free) annotate implementation
    #     c. it implies "hgweb".
    # - hgweb: replace hgweb's annotate implementation. conflict with "fctx".
    # (default: fastannotate)
    modes = fastannotate

    # default format when no format flags are used (default: number)
    defaultformat = changeset, user, date

    # tip: the .hg/fastannotate directory is portable - can be rsynced

    # disabling it could make server response faster, useful when there is a
    # cronjob building the cache.

    clientfetchthreshold = 10

    # for "fctx" mode, always follow renames regardless of command line option.
    # this is a BC with the original command but will reduced the space needed
    # for annotate cache, and is useful for client-server setup since the
    # server will only provide annotate cache with default options (i.e. with
    # follow). do not affect "fastannotate" mode. (default: True)
    forcefollow = True

    # for "fctx" mode, always treat file as text files, to skip the "isbinary"
    # check. this is consistent with the "fastannotate" command and could help
    # to avoid a file fetch if remotefilelog is used. (default: True)
    forcetext = True

    # use unfiltered repo for better performance.
    unfilteredrepo = True

    # sacrifice correctness in some corner cases for performance. it does not
    # affect the correctness of the annotate cache being built. the option
    # is experimental and may disappear in the future (default: False)

# TODO from import:
# * `branch` is probably the wrong term, throughout the code.

# * replace the fastannotate `modes` configuration with a collection

#
# * Use the templater instead of bespoke formatting
#
# * rename the config knob for updating the local cache from a remote server
#
# * revise wireprotocol for sharing annotate files
#
# * figure out a sensible default for `mainbranch` (with the caveat
