cli: fix 'front-end-build' on Windows (Issue #332)
On Windows, the command 'npm' is actually 'npm.cmd', a script and not a PE
executable. 'subprocess' will not resolve 'npm' into 'npm.cmd', while it
would resolve e.g. 'git' into 'git.exe', as the latter _is_ a PE
executable.
One solution is to change all references to the problematic scripts by
adding the '.cmd' extension explicitly, but this would not be compatible
with UNIX systems and thus require special handling.
On Windows, the problem can be solved by passing 'shell=True' to subprocess.
On UNIX, we don't need shell=True and prefer shell=False.
A solution that fits both cases is 'shell=kallithea.is_windows'.
Note: on Windows, next to the 'npm.cmd' file (and same for license-checker
etc.) there is also a file 'npm' (without extension). It is a shell script
(interpreter /bin/sh) for use on Windows with mingw/msys/cygwin. This script
will nevertheless never be used by the standard Windows command prompt and
is not used by Kallithea.

==================
Repository locking
==================
Kallithea has a *repository locking* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, every initial clone and every pull gives users (with write permission)
the exclusive right to do a push.
When repository locking is enabled, repositories get a ``locked`` flag.
The hg/git commands ``hg/git clone``, ``hg/git pull``,
and ``hg/git push`` influence this state:
- A ``clone`` or ``pull`` action locks the target repository
if the user has write/admin permissions on this repository.
- Kallithea will remember the user who locked the repository so only this
specific user can unlock the repo by performing a ``push``
command.
- Every other command on a locked repository from this user and every command
from any other user will result in an HTTP return code 423 (Locked).
Additionally, the HTTP error will mention the user that locked the repository
(e.g., “repository <repo> locked by user <user>”).
Each repository can be manually unlocked by an administrator from the
repository settings menu.
