lockfile: change lock_file::filename into a strbuf

For now, we still make sure to allocate at least PATH_MAX characters
for the strbuf because resolve_symlink() doesn't know how to expand
the space for its return value.  (That will be fixed in a moment.)

Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in
lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct
lock_file.  But lock_file objects are often reused.  By reusing the
same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times
when a lock_file object is reused.
