File is a fn , not a type. Calling `deinit` (although there's no reason
to do that) produces a compile error:
```
/home/bob/.cache/zig/p/libxev-0.0.0-86vtc-zkEgB7uv1i0Sa6ytJETZQi_lHJrImu9mLb9moi/src/watcher/file.zig:66:36: error: expected type 'type', found 'fn (comptime type) type'
pub fn deinit(self: *const File) void {
```
Not at all an actual issue. But will confuse new users when they try to
call `deinit` and get a surprising type error
