ReadOnly: If record does not exist, upgrade to write-lock

If we attempt a readonly lock request for a record that do not exist (yet)
in the local TDB, then upgrade the request to ask for a write lock and force a
request for migrate the record onto the local node.
This allows the "only request record on second local request for known contended records"
heuristics to try to avoid creating readonly delegations unless we have good reason to
assume it is a contended record.
