/**
 * {@link Interceptor} implementation that obtains a (reentrant) Java lock before Sample save/update
 * and releases it on transaction completion. It is more safe to implement such a lock this way
 * rather than invoking a method obtaining the lock inside DAO methods because update of Sample
 * could happen automatically upon flush to DB and it would be easy to introduce such an update
 * without noticing it. On the other hand we need a lock that will be obtained for every Sample
 * modification because we have a complex unique code check in a before save/update trigger and we
 * don't want any race condition or deadlock (if lock is gathered in the trigger). See [LMS-814] for
 * details.<br>
 * <br>
 * NOTE: Explicit exclusive lock on 'samples' table cannot be used because H2 database does not
 * support it.
