SettingsProvider 之 FileObserver

// FileObserver for external modifications to the database file.
    // Note that this is for platform developers only with
    // userdebug/eng builds who should be able to tinker with the
    // sqlite database out from under the SettingsProvider, which is
    // normally the exclusive owner of the database.  But we keep this
    // enabled all the time to minimize development-vs-user
    // differences in testing.
    //FileObserver是外部对数据库修改的监听。
    //这是userdebug或者eng版本的平台开发者，开发者也是独占数据库的所有者，能够在SettingsProvider中摆弄sqlite数据库。
    //这个监听，能够保持长久运行，减小开发者和用户之间的差距。
