Explicit locking

Query goal: PostgreSQL uses Multi-version Concurrency Control (MVCC) and thus, sometimes, one has to explicitly lock certain rows or entire table. One has to use LOCK TABLE or SELECT … FOR UPDATE statements for that.
Notes about the query: Refers to the column pg_proc.prokind and thus works starting from PostgreSQL 11. In the returned body of routine the query replaces each newline character with the line break (br) tag for the better readability in case the query result is displayed in a web browser. There could be multiple routines with the same name but with different parameters in the same schema (overloading). Thus, for the unique identification of the routine it is necessary to present also its parameters in addition to the schema name and routine name.
