This allow to send a SIGHUP whenever a inotify MODIFY event is detected on config file.

Any chance you could have a look and merge ? The motivatio being this is that I do use a web interface for subscribing to torrent feed, and it is more secure not to get the web the option to restart automatic but just to write the configuration to a while which automatic get notifie when change and reload the configuration.

@benoitm974 you use a web interface to write a new automatic.conf file? that's awesome, i've been trying to find a way to do this myself. is what you use open source?
