```
    Get a row lock for the specified row. All locks are reentrant. Before calling this function make sure that a region operation has already been started (the calling thread has already acquired the region-close-guard lock).
    The obtained locks should be released after use by Region.RowLock.release()
    NOTE: the boolean passed here has changed. It used to be a boolean that stated whether or not to wait on the lock. Now it is whether it an exclusive lock is requested.
    
    Parameters:
    
    row - The row actions will be performed against
    
    readLock - is the lock reader or writer. True indicates that a non-exclusive lock is requested
