problem_statement: Doesn't detect file deletion on macOS/Windows
I was hoping to use this as a replacement for Pelican's development server, which has an option to automatically regenerate content when a file is created, updated, or deleted, but doesn't refresh the browser. I followed an [existing example](https://merlijn.vandeen.nl/2015/pelican-livereload.html) to get it going, but was surprised that files deleted from a watched directory/glob don't trigger a reload.

Looking through [watcher.py](https://github.com/lepture/python-livereload/blob/master/livereload/watcher.py), it looks like this might work on Linux via `INotifyWatcher` and `pyinotify`. However, it seems like the base `Watcher` class used macOS/Windows walks the glob/directory tree looking for changes to files based on modification time, with no check for files that no longer exist.
