The problem is in file-notify--test-cleanup-p, and it happens only
when the parent directory of the file(s) being watched is deleted.

The root cause is that file-notify--test-cleanup-p expects the
notification descriptor(s) to be deleted from the hash table
maintained internally by filenotify.el, when the above happens.  But
that doesn't work on Windows, where deleting the parent directory
simply causes an error whose result is that the thread which watches
the filesystem changes exits abnormally, but the event is not
reported.  So in those cases the descriptor is not removed from the
hash table.

The changes below make the tests succeed, but maybe the above means we
need to augment the w32notify implementation to clean up better in
this case.  Michael?
