auth: introduce AuthUser.is_default_user attribute
This makes makes a number of checks more readable.
The username of the default user is presently hardcoded to "default" (in
db.User.DEFAULT_USER); this is currently what defines the default user,
and this commit doesn't change that. (Even if the check that defines
is_default_user is a comparison between user IDs and not usernames,
the anonymous_user object used in the comparison is loaded by looking
up the user named "default".)

==================
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.
