[ovs-dev] [PATCH] ovsdb: Correct specification inconsistency between "lock" and "assert".

[Ben Pfaff]

The "lock" request requires the lock name to be an <id> but it is shown as
<string> in the "assert" operation.  This corrects the "assert"
specification and fixes the suggested naming convention (since ":" is not
valid in an <id>).

This commit also updates the implementation to match the specification.

 The scope of a lock is a database server, not a database hosted by
-that server.  A naming convention, such as "<db-name>:<lock-name>",
+that server.  A naming convention, such as "<db-name>__<lock-name>",
 can effectively limit the scope of a lock to a particular database.
