wheels deploy lock status

Report whether the per-service deploy lock is held. If held, prints the user and message that took it.

wheels deploy lock status [--destination=<name>] [--dry-run]

| Flag | Description | |------|-------------| | --destination=<name> | Overlay destination config. | | --dry-run | Print the command without executing. |

Reads /tmp/kamal_deploy_lock_<service> on a single host. Unlocked: empty output. Locked: message and performer from the lock file.

Always run this before lock release — it's the only safe way to tell a stale lock from an active one.
