Allows users to manually opt-out of monitoring directories in
the browser by default, and also provides a mechanism for
enterprise installs to disable this potentially unwanted behavior.
are slow
Effectively this means that the browser no longer defaults to watching
network and remote drives (on Windows) for changes. This is expensive
to do and can result in large hangs in the QGIS application.
Users can still manually opt-in to monitoring of these locations
through the context menu of the directory in the browser panel.
items should be automatically monitored for changes
This monitoring can be expensive for some locations (eg network
folders or cloud based directories), so in these cases it is
desirable to allow it to be disabled to avoid hangs in the QGIS
application.
QFlags created from enum classes aren't automatically converted
from an int value passed by Python code, so we need to create
compatibility functions for the older variants which accept
plain ints
