From: Jeff Hostetler <jeffhost@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Emit NFC or NFC and NFD spellings of pathnames on macOS.
MacOS is Unicode composition insensitive, so NFC and NFD spellings are
treated as aliases and collide. While the spelling of pathnames in
filesystem events depends upon the underlying filesystem, such as
APFS, HFS+ or FAT32, the OS enforces such collisions regardless of
filesystem.
Teach the daemon to always report the NFC spelling and to report
the NFD spelling when stored in that format on the disk.
This is slightly more general than "core.precomposeUnicode".
