[PATCH v3 2/2] Check working directory and Unix domain socket file for compatability

["edecosta via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: edecosta <edecosta@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Perform separate checks for the working directory and Unix domain socket
(UDS) file location. The working directory may be located on a
network-mounted file system if 'fsmonitor.allowRemote' is true. The UDS
file may never be located on a network-mounted file system; additionally
it may not be located on FAT32 or NTFS file systems.
