Review Comment:
   @qqu0127 This I think depends on the implementation of release lock, though 
the expected behavior of releasing a lock on one that either doesn't exist or 
already has been released should error. As per the design, releaslock releases 
the lock using transactional support to avoid race conditions.
   
   @xyuanlu I think this is related to @mgao0 question above on creating a 
separate class to surface exceptions/errors. Depending on the implementation, 
that will or will not differentiate between those two errors (though I think it 
is a good idea to too). With a separate error/result wrapper class we can 
capture this error and return it, regardless of the underlying datastore.
