9adf948a2b GFileMonitorSource: return "interesting" value
Return an "interesting" boolean from the event handler function on
GFileMonitorSource.

An event was "interesting" if it will result in a signal actually being
dispatched to the user.  It is "uninteresting" if it only hit an
already-dirty rate limiter.

We will use this information to do some backing off in the backends when
faced with a flood of uninteresting events.

2737ab3201 substantially rework file monitors
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.

33762a4173 glocalfile: add private worker monitor APIs
Add a convenient and race-free method of watching local files from the
GLib worker thread.

Without this, the race-free way to create a monitor that dispatches
events to the worker thread looked something like this:

 - dispatch an idle to the worker thread
 - from the idle, create the monitor and connect signals
 - from the original thread, wait (on a cond?) until the worker thread
   has finished setting up the monitor
 - read the file that you were monitoring

which is just ridiculously complicated...

To use the new API:

  monitor = g_local_file_monitor_new_in_worker ("/path/to/some/file",
                                                G_FILE_MONITOR_NONE,
                                                &error);
  g_assert_no_error (error);

  g_signal_connect (monitor, "changed", G_CALLBACK (callback), NULL);

  g_local_file_monitor_start (monitor);

'callback' will run from the GLib worker thread.

This is the reason that the start() call was introduced in the previous
commit.  The backends that don't use the start() call will have a very
thin race between creating the monitor and connecting the signal, but
hopefully they will be fixed soon.

These new APIs will be used (at least) from gdesktopappinfo to watch for
changes in the desktop file directories.

b050dc3c0a local monitors: make more idiomatic use of GObject
Stop abusing constructor() to do startup work, adding _start() calls
instead.

The backends themselves still use constructor() although a patch will be
following to also fix inotify.

The reason for using a separate start() call instead of constructed()
will become apparent in future commits.

6be54e9f56 localfile: add support for monitoring on NFS
Add a pair of new extension points: 'gio-nfs-file-monitor' and
'gio-nfs-directory-monitor'.

Add a check to GLocalFile when creating a file monitor.  If the
requested file is in the user's home directory and the user has an NFS
home directory then attempt to use an implementation of one of the new
extension points.  If we don't have any implementations then fall back
to the normal "local" monitors.

b7e749fc68 glocal*monitor: export ABI only on UNIX
Add an #ifdef G_OS_UNIX around the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation on
the _get_type() functions for GLocal{File,Directory}Monitor.

These symbols are in private header files and are only exported so that
the in-tree file monitoring modules can subclass.  This is only needed
on UNIX and was therefore never part of the public ABI on Windows.

Caught by Dieter Verfaillie.

0156092a42 various: add GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL everywhere else
Add the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_ALL annotation to all old functions (that
haven't already been annotated with the GLIB_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros or a
deprecation macro).

If we discover in the future that we cannot use only one macro on
Windows, it will be an easy sed patch to fix that.
