[PATCH v6 05/10] fsmonitor: deduplicate IPC path logic for Unix platforms

Message-ID: <ff31e359a7070c8d410518da0230ad0ecae7d771.1772050636.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To: <pull.2147.v6.git.git.1772050636.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: Paul Tarjan <github@paulisageek.com>

The IPC path logic for determining the Unix domain socket location is nearly identical between macOS and Linux. Both need to check whether the .git directory is on a remote filesystem and, if so, fall back to a socket path under $HOME or a user-configured directory.

Merge the two implementations into a single fsm-ipc-unix.c that is shared by both platforms. The unified version includes the worktree NULL check (BUG guard) from the Linux implementation, which was missing in the macOS version.

Update Makefile, meson.build, and CMakeLists.txt to use the new shared file for non-Windows platforms.
