Public bug reported:

SettingsDb could be greatly simplified by using ctime/mtime of the
settings file, rather than a watcher thread and inotify watch. The only
place where we care if settings file has changes is settings() getter
and this is where we can just check ctime/mtime to detect changes and
re-parse.
