/*
* Javascript runs single-threaded, with an event loop. Because of that,
* explicit synchronization is often not needed. An exception is when we use
* an API function that must wait. Ajax is an example. Callback passed to ajax
* call doesn't get called immediately, but after some time. In the meantime
* some other piece of code might get to execute and modify some variables.
* Access to WebExtension local storage is another situation where this problem
* can occur.
*
* This is a solution. A lock object, that can be used to delay execution of
* some code until other code finishes its critical work. Locking is wrapped
* in a promise.
