Issue:
Linux Bad File Descriptor when watched directory is removed
Hello

I tested watchdog on Linux (Ubuntu) and Windows (Win10).

### **Versions**
**Linux::**
```
Python 3.6.9
watchdog-1.0.2
```
**Windows**
```
Python 3.7.9
watchdog-1.0.2
```

### **Test scenario is as below:**
1. Create directory X
2. Watch directory X and handle events using FileSystemEventHandler
3. Remove directory X
4. Unschedule observer (using observer.unschedule_all or observer.unschedule)
5. Stop observer and join

### **Issue:**
**Linux:** 
1. When observer.unschedule_all() is called, OSError(9, "Bad File Descriptor") is raised.
2.  When observer.unschedule(path) is called, KeyError is raised

**Windows**: Everything works fine.

### **Example source code**

```
import os
import time
from watchdog.observers import Observer
from watchdog.events import FileSystemEventHandler

# Linux path
WATCHED_DIR = "/home/eplaszcz/PycharmProjects/project_dir"

# Windows path
# WATCHED_DIR = "C:\\Users\\eplaszcz\\Documents\\watchdog_test\\project_dir"


def run_watchdog():
    observer = Observer()
    watched_dir = WATCHED_DIR
    event_handler = FileSystemEventHandler()

    if not os.path.isdir(watched_dir):
        os.mkdir(WATCHED_DIR)

    observer.start()

    print("Schedule target watcher for %s" % watched_dir)
    observer.schedule(event_handler, path=watched_dir, recursive=True)

    while os.path.isdir(watched_dir):
        time.sleep(2)
        os.rmdir(WATCHED_DIR)

    print("Active watchers: {}".format(observer._watches))

    print("Directory removed, unschedule")
    observer.unschedule_all()

    print("Observer unscheduled")
    print("Active watchers: {}".format(observer._watches))

    print("Directory removed, stop")
    observer.stop()

    print("Directory removed, join")
    observer.join()


if __name__ == '__main__':
    run_watchdog()
```

### **Linux output when using observer.unschedule_all**
```
