tail: reinstate inotify use with FIFOs

commit v8.27-44-g18f6b22 was too aggressive in
only allowing inotify use with regular files. This will
support responsive processing of `tail -f fifo | ...`

* src/tail.c (any_non_regular): Adjust to allow FIFOs
since inotify supports these well.
* tests/tail-2/inotify-only-regular.sh: Adjust comment.
