Add separate method for file/directory metadata modifcation

[GreatBahram]

Hi there,

As we discussed here #260, I tried to solve the problem using two new events for inotify, kqueue, and fsevents2 backends. So far, I've found no solution for the windows, as in this document describes it does not have an action for this purpose.

Hi @BoboTiG,

Could you approve my workflows, please?

I changed the fsevents and fsevents2 modules, but I'm still unsure of them. The GitHub actions is very primitive; I could not get any guarantee out of it. But for inofity and kqueue, I tested them manually on Linux and Freebsd.

I’m eager to receive your feedback.

The pipeline gives a bizarre error message. Do you know what the reason is?

OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

@GreatBahram I fixed conflicts, and rebased from master. Would you be able to double check I didn't alter what you've done in tests + fix linting/mypy issues 🙏🏻 ?

Glad to see this PR is still alive, I'd love to see this get pulled.

Several Mac, and Windows, tests are failing. I'l try to fix them later. I would like to have that PR merged for the upcoming version.

A few remaining macOS tests to fix, and we will be good to merge.

I finally have a Mac machine, it will be easier to fix those tests. I'll try to get it done "quickly".
