Summary

This allows registering an event to watch for changes to a file's
attributes. This is a bit imperfect as it would be nice to have a way
to determine if an fd can use EVFILT_VNODE successfully. mevent's
current structure does not permit that and a failure to register a
single kevent impacts several other kevents.

GCC appears to be complaining about this:

/exports/users/alr48/sources/freebsd/usr.sbin/bhyve/mevent.c:188:2: error: enumeration value 'EVF_READ' not handled in switch [-Werror=switch]
  switch (mevp->me_type) {
  ^~~~~~
/exports/users/alr48/sources/freebsd/usr.sbin/bhyve/mevent.c:188:2: error: enumeration value 'EVF_WRITE' not handled in switch [-Werror=switch]
/exports/users/alr48/sources/freebsd/usr.sbin/bhyve/mevent.c:188:2: error: enumeration value 'EVF_TIMER' not handled in switch [-Werror=switch]
/exports/users/alr48/sources/freebsd/usr.sbin/bhyve/mevent.c:188:2: error: enumeration value 'EVF_SIGNAL' not handled in switch [-Werror=switch]

I guess it just needs a default case?
