Add try_inotify option
There are some special cases where inotify cannot be used, even if the host OS claims that it is supported. In these cases, it should be possible to explicitly disable the use of inotify. https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/484

+ SSSD monitors the state of resolv.conf to
+ identify when it needs to update its internal
+ DNS resolver. By default, we will attempt to
+ use inotify for this, and will fall back to
+ polling resolv.conf every five seconds if
+ inotify cannot be used.

+ There are some limited situations where it is

+ Note: this option will have no effect on
