    doc: Mention the level of locks taken on objects in COMMENT
    
    This information was nowhere to be found.  This adds one note on the
    page of COMMENT, and one note in the section dedicated to explicit
    locking, both telling that a SHARE UPDATE EXCLUSIVE lock is taken on the
    object commented.
