PR phlipper#69 updated the monit provider to use run_action on the provided resources to make external notifications propagate (i.e., so that a 'notifies' in a monit_monitrc's block would run). But that has the side effect of not firing the 'notifies' inside the monit_monitrc resource, and thus monit never reloads when a new monit_monitrc resource is created. This use use_inline_resources to evaluate the monit template in its own context, so that that context will fire notifications declared on the monit_monitrc resource, while still firing the notification on the template itself. See notes on updated_by_last_action here: https://docs.chef.io/custom_resources_notes.html
