       This is the base class for all restarters, and it also provide functionality for picking an appropriate
       restarter subclass for a given platform.

       This class uses File::ChangeNotify to watch one or more directories of files and restart the Catalyst
       server when any of those files changes.

pick_subclass
       Returns the name of an appropriate subclass for the given platform.

   new(start_sub=>sub{...},...)
       This method creates a new restarter object, but should be called on a subclass, not this class.

       The "start_sub" argument is required. This is a subroutine reference that can be used to start the
       Catalyst server.

   run_and_watch
       This method forks, starts the server in a child process, and then watched for changed files in the
       parent. When files change, it kills the child, forks again, and starts a new server.
