This also change the locking order to lock in APT order, and the unlock order becomes the reverse of that so that the behavior is sane wrt other clients, as it was somewhat broken. [Test case] Lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend and then try do so something with aptdaemon, it should not be possible until you release lock-frontend. [Regression potential] There may be other race conditions appearing now due to the order of (un)locking changing.
