Question: Is there a way to "permanently" unlock a branch (not re-lock after commit to remote) until users decide to re-lock it?

Overview of the Issue

I have users that want to have long running branches where config changes are periodically updated and not applied till more conversation is had and everything is confirmed.

Atlantis will lock the PR, blocking other applies for the same state until its manually unlocked or merged. You can unlock a PR, but a commit to remote will re-lock it.

I don't want to modify the default behavior of atlantis I just want to implement a "unlock-permanently" command where after its unlocked atlantis ignores it until you manually send it an "atlantis plan" comment.

Is this possible?
