Obtains a directory monitor for the given file.
This may fail if directory monitoring is not supported.
If cancellable is not NULL, then the operation can be cancelled by
triggering the cancellable object from another thread. If the operation
was cancelled, the error G_IO_ERROR_CANCELLED will be returned.
It does not make sense for flags to contain
G_FILE_MONITOR_WATCH_HARD_LINKS, since hard links can not be made to
directories. It is not possible to monitor all the files in a
directory for changes made via hard links; if you want to do this then
you must register individual watches with g_file_monitor().
