inotify: Unconditionally generate IN_IGNORED events for files/dirs

The implementation previously only generated an IN_IGNORED event for a
deleted watched file if the watch explicitly requested IN_DELETE_SELF.
This is not correct, IN_IGNORED should always be raised when the watched
subject is deleted.  Adjust the implementation of inotify_log_one()
accordingly.

This also fixes a problem where a deleted watched file's watch
would not be removed if IN_DELETE_SELF was not in the watch's event
mask, in which case the unlinked vnode would linger until the inotify
descriptor itself is closed.

Add a regression test.
