acme: add log file in acme root directory

Reading /mnt/acme/log reports a log of window create,
put, and delete events, as they happen. It blocks until the
next event is available.

Example log output:

8 new /Users/rsc/foo.go
8 put /Users/rsc/foo.go
8 del /Users/rsc/foo.go

This lets acme-aware programs react to file writes, for example
compiling code, running a test, or updating an import block.
