Allow .js preference files to set locked prefs with lockPref()

Because this came up on the mailing list, I'll try to be explicit about
the decision here. I don't think we should allow extensions to lock
preferences, and we don't even have a clear description (other than this
code) of what it means to "lock" a preference: whether changes to the
default value are still allowed, or the user value, etc.

The code is the incidental part of this; it's the basic problem and
solution space that's totally unclear.
