    Description

      If Qt Creator or qbs doesn't get a chance to remove its lock file due to a power loss or crash, then the user gets the error message

      Cannot lock build graph file '/home/ablu/build-tiled-Desktop-Debug/qtc_Desktop-debug/qtc_Desktop-debug.bg': Already locked by 'qtcreator' (PID 7203)

      Apparently we know the locking PID and the process name. If there's no such PID and associated process name, then we can remove the lock.
