Real time reloading

To reload the server on every change in files of the directory, you may find entr convenient, e.g.:

$ ls -d * | entr sh -c "killall endpoints; endpoints --prefix=mycontroller --host=localhost:8000 &"

Could add this or something comparable to readme.

We mostly use tests that start and stop the server on each test run, so we've never investigated how to do this, but I think this is a great solution for this problem and I had never heard of entr before. I've updated the readme. Thanks
