sqlite: properly serialize operations on the databases

1. There is one database per folder and sqlite requires to serialize the
writings. Instead of locking at LocalStatusSQLiteFolder instance level,
introduce a new DatabaseFileLock object which is shared across threads. This
fixes the concurrent writes issues that some users might experience by
duplications or flags restored to the previous state.

2. Close the database only when we are sure no other threads will use the
connection on a *per-file* basis. Previous fix 677afb8d8f is wrong
because the same lock is shared for all the database files.
