There’s not much we can do about them, and if they go unhandled, they
can propagate through to g_file_monitor_source_handle_event() and cause
assertion failures due to not mapping to a GFileMonitorEvent.

These tests clear up a misunderstanding of mine: Monitoring
nonexisting files and directories *does* work with the inotify
implementation, it just has a very long timeout for scanning
for missing locations, so the test needs to take that into
account.
After the big file monitoring rewrite, we only put the IN_MOVED_FROM event
in the queue for such pairs. It matches INOTIFY_DIR_MASK and thus we call
ip_dispatch_event on it, but that function was filtering it out because
the filename in the 'from' event is the one of the temp file, not the
one we are monitoring. That name is in the 'to' event, so compare it as
well, and let the event passin that case.
There is another instance of this check in glocalfilemonitor.c, which is
corrected here as well.

Use the "interesting" value from g_file_monitor_source_handle_event() to
decide if we're currently being flooded by a stream of boring events.
The main case here is when one or more files is being written to and the
change events are all being rate-limited in the GFileMonitor frontends.
In that case, we become "bored" with the event stream and add a backoff
timeout. In the case that it is exactly one large file being written
(which is the common case) then leaving the event in the queue also lets
the kernel perform merging on it, so when we wake up, we will only see
the one event. Even in the case that the kernel is unable to perform
merging, the context switch overhead will be vastly reduced.
In testing, this cuts down on the number of wake ups during a large file
copy, by a couple orders of magnitude (ie: less than 1% of the number of
wake ups).
Remove all event merging and dispatch logic from GFileMonitor. The only
implementation of GFileMonitor outside of glib is in gvfs and it already
does these things properly.
Get rid of GLocalDirectoryMonitor. We will use a single class,
GLocalFileMonitor, for both directory and file monitoring. This will
prevent every single backend from having to create two objects
separately (eg: ginotifydirectorymonitor.c and ginotifyfilemonitor.c).
Introduce GFileMonitorSource as a thread-safe cross-context dispatch
mechanism. Put it in GLocalFileMonitor. All backends will be expected
to dispatch via the source and not touch the GFileMonitor object at all
from the worker thread.
Remove all construct properties from GLocalFileMonitor and remove the
"context" construct property from GFileMonitor. All backends must now
get the information about what file to monitor from the ->start() call
which is mandatory to implement.
Remove the implementation of rate limiting in GFileMonitor and add an
implementation in GLocalFileMonitor. gvfs never did anything with this
anyway, but if it wanted to, it would have to implement it for itself.
This was done in order to get the rate_limit field into the
GFileMonitorSource so that it could be safely accessed from the worker
thread.
Expose g_local_file_is_remote() internally for NFS detection.
With the "is_remote" functionality exposed, we can now move all
functions for creating local file monitors to a proper location in
glocalfilemonitor.c
Port the inotify backend to adjust to the changes above. None of the
other backends are ported yet. Those will come in future commits.
Add a new GFileMonitorFlag: G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_HARD_LINKS. When set,
changes made to the file via another hard link will be detected.
Implement the new flag for the inotify backend.

This adds support for G_FILE_MONITOR_SEND_MOVED events when requested by
the user to the inotify backend. Last part to fix bug #547890.
Based heavily on a patch by Martyn Russel <martyn@lanedo.com>.

* inotify/Makefile.am:
* inotify/inotify-helper.c:
* inotify/inotify-kernel.c:
* inotify/inotify-path.c:
* inotify/local_inotify.h: Removed.
* inotify/local_inotify_syscalls.h: Removed.
Removed the included copies of the inotify
headers. We now only use the <sys/inotify.h>
header which exists on modern systems.
This fixes problems on ARM and SH5 (#510448)
but is also generally much cleaner and future
safe. For instance, if other OSes add support
for inotify it should "just work".
