cd9fc110b0 v1.2
look for `lock` file instead of `webappsstore.sqlite-shm` to detect if firefox is running or not (with this profile)

see https://github.com/ghacksuserjs/ghacks-user.js/pull/405#issuecomment-581447586 and follow-up comments.

Thanks @atomGit for reporting the issue and @rusty-snake for confirming it.
