Description

This is a poor man's #17 - you use the EMR jobflow/cluster name to prevent multiple jobs from running at the same time. The jobflow will refuse to start if there is an existing running jobflow with the same name.

Research direction

Start by reading issue #17 and the existing Amazon EMR jobflow handling in the repository. Implement name-based locking so a jobflow refuses to start when another running jobflow has the same name, and verify that this behavior is covered by the relevant existing checks.
