If monitoring is done via fsmonitor hook rather than IPC there is no
need to check if the location of the Unix Domain socket (UDS) file is
on a remote filesystem.

Provide a common interface for getting basic filesystem information
including filesystem type and whether the filesystem is remote.
Refactor existing code for getting basic filesystem info and detecting
remote file systems to the new interface.
Refactor filesystem checks to leverage new interface. For macOS,
error-out if the Unix Domain socket (UDS) file is on a remote
filesystem.

Though perhaps not common, there are use cases where users have large,
network-mounted repos. Having the ability to run fsmonitor against
network paths would benefit those users.
Most modern Samba-based filers have the necessary support to enable
fsmonitor on network-mounted repos. As a first step towards enabling
fsmonitor to work against network-mounted repos, introduce a
configuration option, 'fsmonitor.allowRemote'. Setting this option to
true will override the default behavior (erroring-out) when a
network-mounted repo is detected by fsmonitor.

Teach Git to detect remote working directories on Windows and mark them as
incompatible with FSMonitor.
With this `git fsmonitor--daemon run` will error out with a message like it
does for bare repos.
Client commands, such as `git status`, will not attempt to start the daemon.

VFS for Git virtual repositories are incompatible with FSMonitor.
VFS for Git is a downstream fork of Git. It contains its own custom
file system watcher that is aware of the virtualization. If a working
directory is being managed by VFS for Git, we should not try to watch
it because we may get incomplete results.
We do not know anything about how VFS for Git works, but we do
know that VFS for Git working directories contain a well-defined
config setting. If it is set, mark the working directory as
incompatible.

Extend generic incompatibility checkout with platform-specific
mechanism. Stub in Win32 version.
In the existing fsmonitor-settings code we have a way to mark
types of repos as incompatible with fsmonitor (whether via the
hook and IPC APIs). For example, we do this for bare repos,
since there are no files to watch.
Extend this exclusion mechanism for platform-specific reasons.
This commit just creates the framework and adds a stub for Win32.
