flock: use more useful example in flock.1
The example in the man page does not prevent concurrent execution, as it
obtains a shared lock. More useful is taking an exclusive lock, i.e.
remove "-s".
Additionally, IMO most people want the script to exit when the lock
cannot be acquired, so adding "-n".
