test-lock: use synchronisation file instead of sleep This will prevent the test to be flaky on load.

branchcache: use update_disk to refresh 'served' and 'served.hidden' The `update_disk` method is dedicated to this kind of usecase. Now that the writting patterns are more consistent, we can use it to warm these two important cache. I am dropping the first comment about "refreshing all the others" because it is false. If a branchmap already exist for "served", none of the subset will be updated.

branchcache: explictly update disk state only if no transaction exist If a transaction exist the `write_dirty` call will eventually be done and the state will be synched on disk. It is better to no interfer with that.
