push: make locking of source optional (issue3684)

Having the permission to lock the source repo on push is now optional. When the
repo cannot be locked, phase are not changed locally. A status message is issue
when some actual phase movement are skipped:

    cannot lock source repo, skipping local public phase update

A debug message with the exact reason of the locking failure is issued in all
case.

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:
