1 year ago Ig during the past while I've made three different implementations of the same thing for new demo locating and parsing. The first was a pretty naive implementation from scratch that would poll for changes and send an update if one was found. The other two were watcher based, one using notify and the other using meta's watchman. Notify was in a partially working state, but had issues integrating with tokio that were noted on their docs. Watchman seems to be a much nicer solution, but requires an external binary to be running in the background. I'm going to go back to the first two implementations and see if I can get them working better, because we'd probably not want to have to add another binary to the process + there seem to be some issues with Windows.

I'm going to be splitting this into a few parts: 1) demo file locating/parsing for handling both manual demo recording and automated demo tracking, 2) parsing packets and removing console spam used for faster file updates, 3) uploading to mb.
We know that vote information is somewhere in the packets, but I'm not familiar with how that's structured or where it's going to be. This pr will probably include part 1 and 2 when merged.
