Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing the workflow-multibranch-plugin Properties UI and the disableConcurrentBuilds behavior, then compare it with the reported workspace changes from lock resources. Done means per-branch concurrent builds can be limited through the Properties UI without altering the workspace path.
