'We should just have one configurable timeout for the locking code.'

disagree.  How long to use for a timeout depends entirely on the calling code's
design, not on the abstracted locking subsystem used. for example:

- opportunistically attempting to autolearn during scanning: short lock timeout
- AWL update: short lock timeout
- user-initiated manual training: long timeout

we've been through this before IIRC, with a lock-timeout specified in the
locking code, and ran into many problems that resulted in us changing to the
timeout being controllable from the high-level calling code instead.
