    /** "Quad Lock"
        we want to be able to do semi-granular locking now, and read/write style locking for that. 
        if that is all we want we could just have a rwlock per lockable entity, and we are done. 
        however at times we want to stop-the-world.  in addition, sometimes we want to stop the 
        world *for writing only*.  

        A hierarchy of locks could achieve this; instead here we've modeled it in one synchronization
        object our "QLock".  Our possible locked states are:

          w - i will write, and i will granularly lock after the qlock acquisition
          r - i will read,  and i will granularly lock after the qlock acquisition
          W - i will write globally. stop the world.
          R - i will read globally. stop any writer.

        For example there is a point during journal batch commits where we wish to block all writers 
        but no readers.

        Non-recursive.

          r w R W X  <== lock that was around
        r * * * - -
        w * * - - -            * allowed
        R * - * - -            - not allowed (blocks)
        W - - - - -            ! See NOTE(!).
        X - ! - - -
        ^
        lock we are requesting

        NOTE(!): The "X" state can only be reached from the "w" state.  A thread successfully
        transitions from "w" to "X" when w_to_X() returns true, and fails to transition to that
        state (remaining in "w") when that function returns false.  For one thread to successfully
        transition, all threads in the "w" state must be blocked in w_to_X().  When all threads in
        the "w" state are blocked in w_to_X(), one thread will be released in the X state.  The
        other threads remain blocked in w_to_X() until the thread in the X state calls X_to_w().
