fsnotify watches are not recursive, so if $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/finicky did not exist at startup the watcher never noticed a config file created inside it later. Watch the nearest existing ancestor of each candidate folder and refresh watches when an intermediate directory is created. Addresses CodeRabbit review on johnste#555

entries for deleted or renamed directories are removed from watchedFolders. This
lets addWatches add a fresh fsnotify watch when a directory is recreated instead
of skipping it based on stale state.
- Around line 308-310: After addWatches() handles a directory-creation event,
check GetConfigPath and, if a config file exists, route it through the existing
config-change path so it is loaded without waiting for a file-creation event.

…atcher Use the watcher's live WatchList as the source of truth instead of a separate map, so a watched directory that is deleted (fsnotify drops the watch automatically) and later recreated gets watched again. When a directory is moved into place with a config file already inside, no file-creation event follows the directory event, so check for a config file right after adding the new watch and load it directly.

RemoveandRenameevents, so it does not rebuild an ancestor watch. If the directory is recreated with a config file already inside, no watched parent reports the creation. Config discovery and reload then remain inactive.Handle

…renamed fsnotify drops a directory's watch when it is deleted, and the directory's ancestors are not necessarily watched (e.g. a custom $XDG_CONFIG_HOME outside ~/.config), so a recreated directory could go unnoticed. Re-add watches for the nearest existing ancestors on Remove/Rename events. Addresses CodeRabbit review round 3 on johnste#555
