In the Notify code path bazel-watcher uses os.ProcessState to determine if a process is still running. However, it never calls Wait or Run, like it does in the normal codepath. This patch adds an async goroutine that Waits for the subprocess to exisit so that ProcessState is populated correctly.

Without this change subprocesses that exit result in bazel-watcher never detecting that the process is dead and trying to write to it continuously, which causes broken pipe errors in macOS/Linux, and broken builds until bazel-watcher is restarted.
