fsnotify: generalize handling of extra event flags
FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD gets a special treatment in fsnotify() because it is not a flag specifying an event type, but rather an extra flags that may be reported along with another event and control the handling of the event by the backend. FS_ISDIR is also an "extra flag" and not an "event type" and therefore desrves the same treatment. With inotify/dnotify backends it was never possible to set FS_ISDIR in mark masks, so it did not matter. With fanotify backend, mark adding code jumps through hoops to avoid setting the FS_ISDIR in the commulative object mask. Separate the constant ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS to ALL_FSNOTIFY_FLAGS and ALL_FSNOTIFY_EVENTS, so the latter can be used to test for specific event types.
