Almost nothing checks these return values, and there's no reason a valid lock should fail to operate. The cases where a lock isn't valid (it's a bogus pointer, it was previously destroyed, a thread is unlocking a lock it doesn't own, etc) are undefined behavior and always were, and should be treated as an application bug.
Reference Issue #8096.
(This is a draft PR until the builders all pass, but it's otherwise ready to merge, if we want to do this.)
