Amir Goldstein 31a371e419 fanotify: prepare for setting event flags in ignore mask
Setting flags FAN_ONDIR FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD in ignore mask has no effect.
The FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag in mask implicitly applies to ignore mask and
ignore mask is always implicitly applied to events on directories.

Define a mark flag that replaces this legacy behavior with logic of
applying the ignore mask according to event flags in ignore mask.

Implement the new logic to prepare for supporting an ignore mask that
ignores events on children and ignore mask that does not ignore events
on directories.

To emphasize the change in terminology, also rename ignored_mask mark
member to ignore_mask and use accessors to get only the effective
ignored events or the ignored events and flags.

This change in terminology finally aligns with the "ignore mask"
language in man pages and in most of the comments.
