Detect lock files from other processes that are/may be modifying the data disks and wait for them to be removed before continuing with the diff/sync.
I use StableBit Drivepool to pool my data disks, and have a landing zone to help prevent writes to the data disks while a sync is underway (and for protection against disk failure). This is configured to 'rebalance' onto the main data disks daily before the scheduled sync, with a file created to indicate that a balance is in progress - using the functionality added in this PR, I can get the script to pause until the balance has completed. As another example, it could also be used to wait for a long-running backup to complete.
