Bug is now fixed. I can confirm this via hand-tests, by pasting LOCK
and subsequent PROPFIND requests into netcat, simulating what a
generic dav client (like dreamweaver) does.

The fix is very simple: propogate the svn_lock_t boolean field into
the public svn_fs_lock() API. Of course the patch *looks* huge,
touching 16 files due to the API change... but the actual amount of
logical code-churn is close to zero. It's really easy to review.

As soon as 'make check' passes over ra_dav, I'll commit the change
and nominate for 1.2.x. As I said before, I think this bug is a
showstopper for the 1.2 autoversioning feature, and warrants an rc4
release. (Maybe breser can roll rc4 later this evening?)
