Lock releases now log instead of failing silently

Failed lock releases now log a warning, including when a lock vanished before release.

What

Releasing a task or mailbox lock goes through a shared helper that catches the error and logs a labelled warning. It distinguishes a lock that was already gone at release time, noting that the protected section may have run without exclusivity, from a stale lock directory left behind.

Details
  • Labels identify the call site, such as claiming a task, claiming a task with a busy check, or writing to a named recipient's mailbox.
Evidence

lock was no longer held at release

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
