596f96b08d gio-kqueue: use O_EVTONLY on MacOS
MacOS provides the O_EVTONLY flag to open(2) which allow to open a file
for monitoring without preventing an unmount of the volume that contains
it.

a335fd1de8 GFileMonitor: Add kqueue(3) support to GIO
Written by Dmitry Matveev as part of GSoC 2011:
http://netbsd-soc.sourceforge.net/projects/kqueue4gio/

This brings native file monitoring support on systems supporting kqueue(3)
(all BSDs) and remove the need to rely on the unmaintained gamin software.
The backend adds GKqueueDirectoryMonitor and GKqueueFileMonitor.

Some parts rewritten by myself (to prevent needing a configuration file).
Helpful inputs from Colin Walters and Simon McVittie.
