Office-Online is not locking files which causes conflicts #546

Describe the bug Office Online is not locking file if I am working within office-online so that an other person is able to open them locally which is leading to conflicts of the file because two persons are working on it at the same time without knowing it.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Person A opens a file with office-online and works with it.
  2. Person B opens the same file locally (synced with nextcloud client) and also works with it
  3. Person B gets conflicts after saving because there was no warning that the file is already used somewhere else
  4. Person A doesn't even notice something went wrong

Expected behavior If Person A is working on the file within office-online it should be locked for all other user and programs except office-online itself because of the working together feature.
