Rollup merge of #136704 - benschulz:patch-1, r=ibraheemdev
Improve examples for file locking

The `lock` and `try_lock` documentation states that "if the file not open for writing, it is unspecified whether this function returns an error." With this change, the examples use `File::create` instead of `File::open`, eliminating the possibility of someone blindly copying code with unspecified behavior.
