Keep running into implementation-specific issues:

Watchman is not tracking symbolic links (issue #105)
Chokidar is failing to detect file changes when multiple Chokidar processes are watching the same file (issue #1240)

Introducing this abstraction will help to switch between backends as needed.

This PR also adds fs.watch as a preferred backend on platforms that support it.
