Hmph.  This does not change the behaviour per-se, but what are we
trying to achieve with these warning messages?  

The user uses --fsmonitor or --no-fsmonitor option from the command
line, presumably as a one-shot "this time I'd operate the command
differently from the configured way", so it seems unlikely that the
user is doing so because "... really want to enable/disable".  The
"report()" calls in these if/else cases seem sufficient reminder of
what is going on---perhaps these warnings should be made silenceable
by turning them into advice messages?

This used to be how we got the configuration.

And that is removed so any in-flight topic that adds new caller will
be caught by the compiler.  OK.

So is this.

All nice.

OK, and these "lookup" calls are what make this field "lazily
loaded".  A helper

static inline void lazily_load_fsmonitor_settings(struct repository *r)
{
	if (!r->settings.fsmonitor)
		lookup_fsmonitor_settings(r);
}

might be handy.  Also an assert to ensure nobody calls lookup() on a
repository that already has lazily loaded the settings would be
necessary.

	static void lookup_fsmonitor_settings(struct repository *r)
	{
		if (r->settings.fsmonitor)
			BUG("...");
		CALLOC_ARRAY(r->settings.fsmonitor, 1);

Please remind me why we need a new separate variable, instead of
turning the core.fsmonitor variable into an extended bool <false,
true, builtin>?  The compatibility issues during transition is the
same either way.  Old clients will ignore the request silently when
you set core.useBuiltinFSMonitor, or they will barf if you set
core.fsmonitor to 'builtin', so in a sense, extending the existing
variable may be a safer option.

"lazily" loaded, I think.

Nice attention to the detail here.

Thanks.
