fsmonitor: update GIT_TEST_FSMONITOR support
Rename GIT_FSMONITOR_TEST to GIT_TEST_FSMONITOR for consistency with the other GIT_TEST_ special setups and properly document its use. Add logic in t/test-lib.sh to give a warning when the old variable is set to let people know they need to update their environment to use the new variable. Remove the outdated instructions on how to run the test suite utilizing fsmonitor now that it is properly documented in t/README.
