// Package consullocker provides a locking mechanism using a Consul server.
//
// Consul's (https://www.consul.io) key/value storage system can also be used
// for building a distributed exclusive locking mechanism, often referred to
// as leader election (https://www.consul.io/docs/guides/leader-election.html).
//
// Due to Consul being an external server, connection issues can occur between
// tusd and Consul. In this situation, tusd cannot always ensure that it still
// holds a lock and may panic in an unrecoverable way. This may seems like an
// inconvenient decision but is probably the best solution since we are not
// able to interrupt other goroutines which may be involved in moving the
// uploaded data to a backend.
