Repository: remy/nodemon (js)

Issue:
Can nodemon watch and restart on changes occurring to files with no extension?
I'm using express-generator from Express.js (>4.0). As already discussed in #330, it sets things up to run the app with `node ./bin/www`. How should I setup nodemon in order to trigger restarts on changes to ./bin/www.

```
$ DEBUG=test nodemon --verbose ./bin/www
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] v1.2.1
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] to restart at any time, enter `rs`
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] ignoring: .git /tmp/test/node_modules/**/* bower_components .sass-cache
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] watching: *.*
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] watching extensions: js
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] starting `node ./bin/www`
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] child pid: 1516
13 Jan 16:41:47 - [nodemon] watching 806 files
```

When changing the file:

```
13 Jan 16:41:52 - [nodemon] files triggering change check: bin/www
13 Jan 16:41:52 - [nodemon] changes after filters (before/after): 1/0
```

I tryed to explicitly add the file to the watchlist with the following cmdline, but looks like it still get filtered out.

```
$ DEBUG=test nodemon -w ./bin/www --verbose ./bin/www
```


Pull request:
feat: watch script regardless of extension
Fixes the issue where express is a js based project, but the executable
is `www`, so it misses on the match. So now nodemon will watch for
matching extensions but *also* the script the user gave.

Fixes #461

Note that this can't handle the situation where npm is used to run `node
./bin/www` as nodemon can't split out a package script command.
