10943f9ce3 Make events property of Inotify nonisolated
Some checks failed
Docs / docs (push) Has been cancelled
Docs / deploy (push) Has been cancelled
Properties of actors are implicitly isolated. To be able to read the
events stream from any concurrent context, we need to declare it
nonisolated. And as AsyncStream conforms to Sendable, it is safe to make
both events and the private eventStream nonisolated.

6927464d47 Use Subprocess instead of Shwift
Some checks failed
Docs / docs (push) Has been cancelled
Docs / deploy (push) Has been cancelled
Drop Shwift: it is incompatible with musl (used by the Swift static
linking SDK), and its API is not meaningfully more concise than
Subprocess upon closer inspection.

31ed16c828 Cache build directory of linux containers
SwiftPM uses caches heavily to reduce compilation and download time.
Before this change, we through these caches away with each container.

ac1c86c431 Run linux container with same architechture as host
As the development team uses both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs,
we have to get the host CPU architecture at compilation time instead of
harcoding it.
If the container has a different architecture, the guest has to be
emulated.

4b28c293cb Use Shwift library instead of Subprocess
Shwift has a concise API, which makes writing shell code nice and easy.
This is an opinionated decision.

55f3ca2f7b Temporary fix of SwiftPM Bug using task.sh
Some checks failed
Docs / docs (push) Has been cancelled
Docs / deploy (push) Has been cancelled
SwiftPM has currently a bug, that products or targets of dependencies
are taken into consideration when resolving names, regardless if they're
used or not by the root package. This stops Swift PM from working on packages,
that declare this package as a dependency and define their own TaskCLI target,
as they collide with the definitions of this package. This is resolved, by
prefixing TaskCLI with the package name.
The product collision - which causes swift run - to run this package's task
executable is resolved, by adding that product only temporarily during task
execution using task.sh.

e2bfb8280b Add generate-docs command to build task
The Swift Docc has to run in a Linux container to be able to build the
documentation, as it needs access to the inotify.h header files.

76f91f67a6 Add integration tests for inofity limits
inotify exposes a /proc interface to limit kernel memory usage. If those
limits are set too low, inotify cannot add all watches. The integration
test verifies, that Inotify yields an error in that case.

a8d7fb017f Add data structure for watch descriptor management
For watching whole trees - a change which is upcoming - the watch
descriptor IDs will have to be managed in multiple lists. The
InotifyWatchManager encapsulates the managment logic within a nice API.

d57f998fd4 Use C integer types
Instead of using hardcoded fixed width integers, use C integer types.
As the actual integer size of C depends on the implementation, even if
it is often 32bit, we use the C integer types to guard against cases,
where that is not the case.

Inotify event stream is dependent on system usage. Increasing the
timeouts helps not having to repeat the integration tests.

Each inotify instance produces events for paths in its watch list. Each
item in the watch list is identified by its watch descriptor. Different
paths can be watched for different events.
