Are you suggesting that we should condition-case and check the string
inside the error is "Cannot resolve lock conflict in batch mode"?
Otherwise, if we just catch all errors, this will also catch and
suppress errors for failures to write to the file, which would be bad.

Because we don't want to prompt the user, we just want to signal an
error if there's a lock conflict.

Well... the other issue is that Emacs crashes if you bind
noninteractive=t and then hit a lock conflict. e.g.:
1. Open ~/file and edit it without saving (so Emacs takes the lock)
2. in a separate emacs -Q, run with M-:
(let ((noninteractive t)) (write-region nil nil "~/file"))
3. The emacs -Q crashes
