efreetd - improve sanity checking for recursive icon monitoring

i found my efreetd was not just monitoring a small set of dirs but
literally $HOME - recursively. this explains a lot of performance
issues i have seen on spinning hdd's vs ssd's. i never knew if was in
efreetd though... until now. for whatever reason my efret cache caused
efreet to try monitro a list like:

/
/h
/ho
/hom
/home
/home/
/home/r
... etc.

when trying to monitor something like:

/home/raster/.local/share/icons

that means it ended up trying $HOME as wellas a vast range of dirs it
just shouldn't sensibly ever try. i have no idea how my cache ended up
this way, but deleting it and re-populating it fixed it. so this ads
code to detect such insanity (as wellas give actual complaints on deep
recursion so we can see things better later). not a bug fix as such,
but a major improvement to detecting bugs which is what we want for
stability.

I also noticed that one legacy pixmaps dir is not recursively
monitored, but another is - so be consistent and recurs both.

Also apply checks to desktop file monitoring too.
