Previously, its tests were being run in the build directory, which is
fine (it should always be writable). If multiple tests were run in
parallel, for example with Meson’s `--repeat` option, their test files
would collide.
Fix that by running each test instance in a separate subdirectory of
`/tmp`.

Helps: #1634
check_expected_events is heavily modified in this commit to tolerate
event loss and allow renaming to be reported as creation and deletion.
This fixes test failure on FreeBSD.
Add a test for monitoring an existing local file, with the
WATCH_HARD_LINKS flag specified. This would previously cause a crash;
now it doesn’t.
This test contains a FIXME where I suspect we should be getting some
additional file change notifications from changes made through the hard
link; this requires further follow up and probably further fixes to our
inotify backend.

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.
Add a new test which checks that atomically replacing a file that
is being monitored by GFileMonitor produced the expected events.
The test can easily be expanded to cover other file monitoring
scenarios.
