Merge #995

995: Install and run `cargo watch` if user agrees r=matklad a=Xanewok

This isn't a glorious patch but hopefully is useful :+1: This introduces a default background `cargo watch` task and (separately from that) asks the user on every startup if they want to run `cargo watch` (installs it if it's not available).

r? @matklad does it fit the what you've been thinking about?
