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.

PyKMIP is a Python implementation of the Key Management Interoperability
Protocol (KMIP), an `OASIS`_ communication standard for the management of
objects stored and maintained by key management systems. KMIP defines how key
management operations and operation data should be encoded and communicated
between client and server applications. Supported operations include the full
`CRUD`_ key management lifecycle, including operations for managing object
metadata and for conducting cryptographic operations. Supported object types
include:
* symmetric/asymmetric encryption keys
* passwords/passphrases
* certificates
* opaque data blobs, and more
For more information on KMIP, check out the `OASIS KMIP Technical Committee`_
and the `OASIS KMIP Documentation`_.
