If tryToLock is false, the method will return true if attempting to perform
the specified action on the specified subject (through one of the API
methods) would result in an ObjectLockedException being thrown.
If tryToLock is true, it will return false if you can attempt to lock the
subject. Using isLocked with tryToLock to true and the lock set to exclusive
should be a good test to determine if there is a lock on the object (since
apparently that's what you want to do here).
