lib: Add lockfile
The pid of the IRMd is stored in a lockfile in shared memory. This makes checking if the IRMd is running independent of the configuration, as previously the IRMd pid was stored at the end of the shm_du_map, which could not be read by an IRMd that would be compiled with different configuration options. Also corrects some unnecessary includes Fixes #21.
