Implemented a lock for word editing.
When multiple people are editing the same word, they risk overwriting each others changes. The lock will prevent a second user from entering the edit panel for a word if someone is already editing it - throwing an alert instead.
The lock is released when the editing user cancels, saves, navigates to another page, or closes the tab/browser.
In the case of forceful closure (PC crash, browser crash, power outage, wifi cut etc.), there is a timeout set to 5 minutes where the lock will automatically be released at that time.
Idle users will also be subject to the timeout.
There is not yet implementation of real-time updates for notifying denied users when a word lock has been released, or a heartbeat system to refresh the lock if the user is actively editing and requires more than 5 minutes of access.
