Make `auto-revert-avoid-polling' have effect in global-auto-revert-mode.
Buffers actually handled by that mode are marked with a non-nil value
of `auto-revert--global-mode'. When global-auto-revert-mode is
entered, eligible buffers are marked in that way, and hooks are set up
to mark new buffers and take care of buffers whose file names change.
This way the existing poll-avoidance logic can be used, since the
entire set of buffers in auto-revert is known.
A new hook, `after-set-visited-file-name-hook', was added to handle
the case when the file name of a tracked buffer changes.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-avoid-polling): Amend doc string.
(auto-revert--global-mode): New buffer-local variable.
(global-auto-revert-mode): Mark existing buffers and set up hooks when
mode is entered; do the opposite when exited.
(auto-revert--global-add-current-buffer)
(auto-revert--global-adopt-current-buffer)
(auto-revert--set-visited-file-name-advice): New functions.
(auto-revert--polled-buffers, auto-revert--need-polling-p)
(auto-revert-notify-handler)
(auto-revert-active-p): Modify logic to cover global-auto-revert-mode.
* lisp/files.el (after-set-visited-file-name-hook): New hook.
(set-visited-file-name-hook): Call new hook.
* test/lisp/autorevert-tests.el (top): Use lexical-binding.
(auto-revert-test--write-file, auto-revert-test--buffer-string)
(auto-revert-test--wait-for, auto-revert-test--wait-for-buffer-text)
(auto-revert-test05-global-notify): New test.
* doc/lispref/hooks.texi (Standard Hooks):
Mention new hook (in a comment, since it's unclear whether it should
actually be documented here)
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages): Update entry.
Allow non-file buffers to declare that notification on their
default-directory is sufficient to know when auto-revert updates are
required by setting the new variable `buffer-auto-revert-by-notification'
to non-nil. If nil, the default, then auto-revert will poll
those buffers instead. (bug#35418).
Currently, only Dired sets that variable.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-buffers):
Modify condition for using notification.
* lisp/files.el (buffer-auto-revert-by-notification): New variable.
* lisp/dired.el (dired-mode): Set buffer-auto-revert-by-notification.
* doc/emacs/arevert-xtra.texi (Non-File Buffers): Document new variable.
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages): Describe new variable.
It is a waste to periodically poll files that use change notification
in auto-revert mode; stop doing that. If no files need polling,
turn off the periodic execution entirely to further avoid wasting power.
Use a timer to inhibit immediate reversion for some time after a
notification, for throttling.
This change does not apply to files in global-auto-revert-mode, where
polling is still necessary. It is disabled by default, and enabled by
setting `auto-revert-avoid-polling' to non-nil.
* lisp/autorevert.el
(toplevel): Require cl-lib.
(auto-revert-avoid-polling, auto-revert--polled-buffers)
(auto-revert--need-polling-p, auto-revert--lockout-interval)
(auto-revert--lockout-timer, auto-revert--end-lockout): New.
(global-auto-revert-mode): Keep notifiers for buffers in auto-revert mode.
(auto-revert-set-timer): Use auto-revert--need-polling-p.
(auto-revert-notify-handler): Restart polling if notification stopped.
Use new lockout timer.
(auto-revert-buffers):
Use auto-revert--polled-buffers and auto-revert--need-polling-p.
(auto-revert-buffers-counter, auto-revert-buffers-counter-lockedout):
Remove.
* etc/NEWS (Changes in Specialized Modes and Packages):
Describe the new auto-revert-avoid-polling variable.
* doc/emacs/files.texi (Reverting):
Add paragraph describing auto-revert-avoid-polling.
* lisp/autorevert.el
(auto-revert-notify-watch-descriptor-hash-list):
Rename to auto-revert--buffers-by-watch-descriptor. Improved doc string.
(auto-revert-notify-rm-watch, auto-revert-notify-add-watch,
auto-revert-notify-handler): Use new name.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-notify-handler):
When getting a `stopped' event, deal with it for the buffers it applies to,
rather than for all buffers in auto-revert mode.
* lisp/autorevert.el (auto-revert-use-notify, auto-revert-mode,
global-auto-revert-mode, auto-revert-notify-rm-watch,
auto-revert-notify-add-watch, auto-revert-notify-handler,
auto-revert-notify-rm-watch-callback):
Don't remove a notify descriptor after receiving a `stopped' notification
event, because the descriptor is then already gone and any attempt to
remove it causes a recursive call to `auto-revert-notify-handler'.

Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
