The current state of the pull request looks like this.
```
if( buffer.is_clean )
	if( auto_reload )
		if( file_prefs.keep_edit_history_on_reload ) //default=true
			possibleHighMemoryUsage();
		else
			possibleDataLoss();
```
It looks to me like we can remove the auto_reload option and make it automatic
without data loss.

Am I correct in assuming you would prefer a finer-grained version of
file_prefs.keep_edit_history_on_reload ??

If so, perhaps document_reload_force() and document_open_file_full() could be 
refactored to take a keep_undo_history parameter??

I do not consider changing the file monitor to be a part of this PR.
