Rephrasing of https://github.com/target/lorri/pull/498.

Instead of keeping the state in memory, we should readlink the file on the filesystem, if possible with a lock. There’s also a few TODOs related to the atomicity of the whole process.

So far only documentation changes.

[ ] Amended the changelog in release.nix (see release.nix for instructions)
