This change updates the server, integrating policy file monitoring
and restructuring the engine. The top-level server entity now
handles loading policy files using the PolicyDirectoryMonitor
subprocess. A shared memory dictionary is used to share newly
modified policy data across the session threads managed by the
server and used by the engine. The legacy policy loading code in
the engine has been removed.
Unit tests have been added and modified for both the server and
engine to verify the functionality of these modifications.
This change adds a PolicyDirectoryMonitor subprocess that can be
used by the server to continuously monitor and load operation
policies from the configured operation policy directory. The
monitor tracks policy file modifications, file creation, and file
deletion, restoring legacy policies from existing policy files
should the current file backing a policy get deleted. Changes to
existing policies are detected and updated as soon as the backing
policy file is saved to disk.
An extensive unit test is included to exercise the different
operating conditions the monitor may encounter.
