Subject: [PATCH] api: revert use of apt-get on lock check

modern `apt` has integrated lock waiting and this improves the `apt_lock_wait` function. `apt-get` does not implement that functionality and immediately returns similar to how old `apt` worked.

continue using `apt` and monitor apt 3.0 for any string output changes
