Switched to node-watch instead of default fs.watch #25

According to the node documentation, recursive filesystem watching is only available on Windows and macOS, meaning Lemonsync is completely unusable for Linux platforms.

See the caveats listed in the NodeJS documentation here: https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html#fs_caveats

With these changes, Lemonsync is working properly on Ubuntu 16.

Note reverted due to #21 ... we'll do some testing and re-patch once we can fix the MacOS issue.
