The lukko package (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lukko) was meant to be a temporary workaround, and relevant improvements have been long accessible from base:GHC.IO.Handle.Lock. As suggested at haskellari/lukko#39 (comment), let's switch the default value of the lukko flag of cabal-install from True to False. Additionally, to be on the safe side, we make it an automatic one, so that if things go terribly wrong a Hackage revision could sort it back. The same change has been implemented for the hackage-security package sometime ago in haskell/hackage-security#322, and there seems to be no complaints.
