Refresh file view when folder updates using inotify API
Linux provides an API for file changes called inotify, xfiles can use this API to refresh or reload the file view for new changes in the folder.
Should be optional, though as xfiles should continue to compile on all UNIX platforms. (FreeBSD for instance has a different Kevent-based API, but provides a libinotify in its ports tree.)
At the very least however, you should add a refresh (changedir ".") to xfilesctl after all operations that expect to change the directory contents.
