vgimportdevices: skip lvmlockd locking

Help bootstrapping existing shared vgs into the devices file.
Reading the vg in vgimportdevices would require locking to be
started, but vgchange lockstart won't see the vg if it's not
in the devices file.  The lvmlockd locks are not protecting
vg modifications so skipping them here won't be a problem.
