The `LockedBy::access` method only requires a shared reference to the
owner, so if we have shared access to the `LockedBy` from several
threads at once, then two threads could call `access` in parallel and
both obtain a shared reference to the inner value. Thus, require that
`T: Sync` when calling the `access` method.
An alternative is to require `T: Sync` in the `impl Sync for LockedBy`.
This patch does not choose that approach as it gives up the ability to
use `LockedBy` with `!Sync` types, which is okay as long as you only use
`access_mut`.
