Some editors automatically remove trailing blank lines, or
automatically add a trailing newline to avoid having a trailing
non-blank line that is not terminated by a newline. To avoid unrelated
whitespace changes when users of such editors contribute to GLib,
let's pre-emptively normalize all files.
Unlike more intrusive whitespace normalization like removing trailing
whitespace from each line, this seems unlikely to cause significant
issues with cherry-picking changes to stable branches.

Previously, kqueue file monitor only add event sources for directories
regardless of the type of the file being monitored. Doing so may be
possible on inotify, but it is not sufficient on kqueue. Watching a
directory on kqueue doesn't report changes made to files under it, and
we must watch files themselves to get notified. This problem is fixed
by adding a second watch for non-directory file monitors, and the result
is that we are now able to receive 'CHANGED' and 'ATTRIBUTE_CHANGED'
events for non-directory files.
Since having two watches on one file monitor requires many code changes
to work properly, this commit also changes the following things:
- NOTE_ALL macro is now replaced by note_all inline function. Since the
kqueue backend is shared by all BSD operating systems, there are a
few difference between these systems. It is easier to do '#ifdef'
check in a function than in a macro.
- Both g_kqueue_file_monitor_callback and g_kqueue_file_monitor_cancel
now holds a lock before accessing kqueue_sub structs. This fixes a
crash when these two functions are called from different threads,
causing g_kqueue_file_monitor_callback to access freed memory.
- 'mask' variable in g_kqueue_file_monitor_callback is now removed.
The usage of 'mask' was wrong because of the 'mask > 0' check.
'CHANGED' event has value 0 so the 'mask > 0' check made it
impossible to emit 'CHANGED' events.
- kqueue-missing scans can now be triggered from the kqueue event
callback instead of always waiting for 4 seconds.
- Don't remove a file from kqueue on unlink unless its hard link count
has dropped to zero.
- Don't use 'else if' in the check of 'fflags'. It is possible for a
kevent to have multiple flags set.
- Don't use g_file_monitor_emit_event directly. Always use
g_file_monitor_source_handle_event to report events.
Events submitted to g_file_monitor_emit_event are delivered
immediately, but events sent to g_file_monitor_source_handle_event
are scheduled by GLocalFileMonitor. If we mix the two, the order of
events will be wrong and tests will fail.
- Report 'CHANGES_DONE_HINT' immediately after 'CREATED' if the file
created is not a regular file. This is copied from ih_event_callback.
- Stop using a custom thread for listening to kqueue(2) events. Instead
call kevent(2) in non blocking mode in a monitor callback. Under the
hood poll(2) is used to figure out if new events are available.
- Do not use a socketpair with a custom protocol requiring 2 supplementary
context switches per event to commicate between multiple threads. Calling
kevent(2), in non blocking mode, to add/remove events is fine from any
context.
- Add kqueue(2) events without the EV_ONESHOT flag. This removes a race
where some notifications were lost because events had to be re-added for
every new notification.
- Get rid of the global hash table and its associated lock and races. Use
the 'cookie' argument of kevent(2) to pass the associated descriptor when
registering an event.
- Fix _kh_file_appeared_cb() by properly passing a monitor instead of a
source to g_file_monitor_emit_event().
- Properly refcount sources.
- Remove a lot of abstraction making it harder to fix the remaining issues.

That event is deprecated, and the kqueue backend can’t provide enough
information to go alongside the event (i.e. the name of the new file).
Use G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_DELETED instead.
Quite disappointed in the kqueue documentation for this: I cannot find a
single piece of documentation or example about how NOTE_RENAME is
supposed to communicate the new name of the file.
If it turns out that this is possible, the code can be amended again in
future. At least now it doesn’t abort.

Previously, _kh_cancel_sub assumed that it only needed to call
_km_remove if sub did not exist in subs_hash_table. This is erroneous
because the complementary operation, _km_add_missing, can be called
from process_kqueue_notifications, in which context sub can *only* have
come from subs_hash_table.
Since _km_remove is implemented using g_slist_remove, which is
documented to be a noop if the list does not contain the element to be
removed, it is safe to call _km_remove unconditionally here.

This is the bare minimal effort. This seems not to crash immediately,
but it definitely needs some better testing.
The backend is not in good shape. It could use some serious work.
The kqueue file monitoring backend was misusing G_GNUC_INTERNAL for want
of 'static' in a couple of places and also using it to declare a lock
that was never used at all.
Fix those up.
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.

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.
