Port inotify to vfs2, with support in tmpfs.

Support in other filesystem impls is still needed. Unlike in Linux and vfs1, we
need to plumb inotify down to each filesystem implementation in order to keep
track of links/inode structures properly.

IN_EXCL_UNLINK still needs to be implemented, as well as a few inotify hooks
that are not present in either vfs1 or vfs2. Those will be addressed in
subsequent changes.

Updates #1479.
