    Log Message:
    Extend (and back-off) the user.tab record lock attempts

    I'v been getting errors locking user.tab (for read) for a while (over samba), so hopefully this helps. The lockuserdat() total timeout duration extends from about 5 seconds to about 45 seconds (with an incremental back-off).

    Implement the same lock-retry logic/limit in putuserdat().

    Check return value of seekuserdat() in putuserdat() and return failure

    ... trying to get to bottom of user.tab corruption reported in issue #797.

    Also, don't need to seek in lockuserdat() since we always call seekuserdat() first.

    Also, some callers of openuserdat() were expecting -1 on failure (always).

    Functions that returned the return value of openuserdat() upon failure, now return USER_OPEN_ERROR instead, to be consistent.

    Log Message:
    Go back to using non-blocking periodic/polling user.tab lock attempts

    This partially reverts commit 03b84df85.

    I observed deadlocks on Linux attempting locks of user.tab on Samba share, which also deadlocked my Windows nodes. Interestingly, the Windows nodes
    never deadlocked on their own (after a week of testing) when using blocking locks.

    Double the frequency of lock retries - this has helped reduce the observed user.tab lock failures on Vertrauen.
