This PR adds support for moving files.
Due to the limited information that macOS associates with each rename event (only the path/inode), it's a challenge to figure out if a rename event pertains to the source or the target of the move. There are at least two alternative designs: (a) maintain an internal index of the file tree; (b) check if a path exists when a rename event comes in. Alternative (a) is potentially more accurate, but getting the concurrency right requires special care and can get quite non-trivial. This PR implements alternative (b) because it's relatively simple. The feature PR (#39) contains a separate task to consider alternative (a).
Note: This PR ignores the issue of generating events for content items when directories are moved (#45). We need to come up with a general design/approach to deal with those, and then we can revisit the macOS-specific implementation as well.
