xshared: using the blocking file lock request when we wait indefinitely

When using "-w" to avoid concurrent instances, we try to do flock() every
one second until it success. But one second maybe too long in some
situations, and it's hard to select a suitable interval time. So when
using "iptables -w" to wait indefinitely, it's better to block until
it become success.

Now do some performance tests. First, flush all the iptables rules in
filter table, and run "iptables -w -S" endlessly:
  # iptables -F
  # iptables -X
  # while : ; do
  iptables -w -S >&- &
  done

Second, after adding and deleting the iptables rules 100 times, measure
the time cost:
  # time for i in $(seq 100); do
  iptables -w -A INPUT
  iptables -w -D INPUT
  done
