Checking that we have a write lock, in libsvn_wc

I noticed that svn_wc_copy3() and svn_wc__move2() didn't check that they have been called with the write lock(s) required by their doc strings.  Some other WC functions do -- e.g. svn_wc_delete4() for example.

So I added corresponding checks in svn_wc_copy3() and svn_wc__move2(), and fixed the ensuing test failures where we weren't acquiring a lock, in r1410044.  Something like:

  SVN_ERR(svn_wc__write_check(db, parent_path, pool));

Then I noticed there are still more WC APIs that say they require a lock but don't check.  For example, svn_wc__internal_remove_from_revision_control().  And this one has a "real" caller that's broken: svn_client_copy6().

Can we do something more rigorous to ensure that we check for having a write lock in the functions where it is logically required?  Any ideas?
