It looks like each package manages its own whitelist in UpdateConfig. Why do we need an additional blacklist here?

| The config file can be passed to stargz snapshotter using `containerd-stargz-grpc`'s `--config` option. | ||

The benefit of this feature compared to the FUSE manager (which already supports safe restarts) should be documented.

Can we make it optional and enable only when a flag is specified to contaienrd-stargz-grpc to keep the consistency with the behaviour of the previous versions of the snapshotter? We should also have tests for this feature and docs about which exact field support the hot reloading.

fsnotify.Rename
If the file is renamed, the next change won't be detected, will it? Is this an expected behaviour?

You don't need to export this symbol.

Why is debounceTimer protected by the mutex? Is this accessed from multiple goroutines? I cound't find new goroutine creation from inside of this function.

Fixes: #2178
This PR implements hot reloading, but only for fs configurations. My rationale is to reserve this feature for settings that are truly optional improvements.
The fs settings fit this model perfectly: the system is fully functional out-of-the-box, but users can tweak them for better results. Because the "best" value can be subjective or workload-dependent, users may want to adjust them frequently. Hot reloading makes this process of discovery and tuning seamless.
For higher-level settings that control fundamental behavior, hot reloading offers little benefit and introduces potential risk. A restart is the more appropriate mechanism for enabling or altering core features.
