When a file is locked, moving it doesn't throw FileSystemException #160

Description

@jacekgajek

In a real file system, the following code would throw FileSystemException with a message "[file]: Device or resource busy" (on Linux).

The memory file system throws exception with message "file still open" when I attempt to delete a file.

However, moving a file does not result in exception

FileChannel.open(sourceFile, StandardOpenOption.WRITE).use { channel ->
    channel.tryLock().use {
         Files.move(sourcePath, targetPath)
    }
}

Expected

FileSystemException with message "[sourcePath]: Device or resource busy".

Actual

No exception is thrown.
