fsmonitor: refactor filesystem checks to common interface

Provide a common interface for getting basic filesystem information
including filesystem type and whether the filesystem is remote.

Refactor existing code for getting basic filesystem info and detecting
remote file systems to the new interface.

Refactor filesystem checks to leverage new interface. For macOS,
error-out if the Unix Domain socket (UDS) file is on a remote
filesystem.
