This gets the G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_HARD_LINKS flag to the state where it
doesn’t cause crashes, and essentially acts as a no-op. It will not yet
actually monitor for changes made via hard links.

If we can’t convert the inotify event mask into a GFileMonitorEvent enum
value, don’t propagate it to GLocalFileMonitor, since it hits an
assertion failure in that case.
This should no longer be possible since the previous commit to ignore
IN_Q_OVERFLOW events, but we might as well change this just in case
other bugs crop up in event mask handling.

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).
We generally assume that an IN_CREATE event is the start of a series of
events in which another process is doing this:
fd = creat (...) -> IN_CREATE
write (fd, ..) -> IN_MODIFY
write (fd, ..) -> IN_MODIFY
close (fd) -> IN_CLOSE_WRITE
and as such, we use the CHANGES_DONE_HINT event after CREATED in order
to show when this sequence of events has completed (ie: when we receive
IN_CLOSE_WRITE when the user closes the file).
Renaming a file into place is handled by IN_MOVED_FROM so we don't have
to worry about that.
There are many other cases, however, where a new file 'appears' in a
directory in its completed form already, and the kernel reports
IN_CREATE. Examples include mkdir, mknod, and the creation of
hardlinks. In these cases, there is no corresponding IN_CLOSE_WRITE
event and the CHANGES_DONE_HINT will have to be emitted by an arbitrary
timeout.
Try to detect some of these cases and report CHANGES_DONE_HINT
immediately.
This is not perfect. There are some cases that will not be reliably
detected. An example is if the user makes a hardlink and then
immediately deletes the original (before we can stat the new file).
Another example is if the user creates a file with O_TMPFILE. In both
of these cases, CHANGES_DONE_HINT will still eventually be delivered via
the timeout.
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 patch makes GFileMonitor to emit EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT when
EVENT_CREATED is emitted but the file is not opened for writing.
On file moves across different mounted volumes, inotify will always emit
IN_CREATE and IN_CLOSE_WRITE (plus other events).
This translates into GIO's _EVENT_CREATED and _EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT.
On file moves across the same mounted volumes, inotify will emit
IN_MOVED_FROM/IN_MOVED_TO which will be translated into
_EVENT_DELETED/_EVENT_CREATED GIO's side. No _EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT is
emited afterwards.
Under such circumstances a file indexer does not know when actually the
file is ready to be indexed, either waiting too much or triggering the
indexing twice. On small devices it's not advisable.

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.
