Add file-locking to the GitLab API

Problem to solve

The ability to lock repository files as described here programmatically via the GitLab API.

Intended users

Release Managers, Security Engineers

Proposal

The endpoint would be appropriate in the Repository Files class of endpoints.

Permissions and Security

Documentation

We would need to update the API documentation to include the details of the new endpoint, and we should update the File Locking documentation to reflect the new API functionality.

Testing

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

What is the type of buyer?
