lockfile: ask for forgiveness, not permission

Create the lockfile directory if it doesn't exist, rather than erroring out if
it doesn't exist (was also racy).

Also improve the wording of the error message shown when the lockfile's
directory is not writable.

Note for the future, this function should be improved, particularly with
regard to its exception handling. It should be catching the *exact*
exception(s) it will encounter when the file is locked, and continuing in that
case only. If it did that, there'd be no need for the proactive directory
writability check, as bb.utils.lockfile() would raise an appropriate IOError
for that case.
