Description
Hey there,
I’m trying out Bacon on a rather complex project organized in a Workspace.
I’ve configured a number of jobs, which are all launched correctly, no problem.
However, the watch directories are borked.
From what I see in the logs, the directories in the _watch_ use the first crate as the root.
For example let’s say ̇I have:
Folder1
Folder2
If I put _watch = ["Folder1", "Folder2"]_ then beacon will complain that it can’t find _"/root/path/Folder1/Folder1"_ and _"/root/path/Folder1/Folder2"_.
If I put _watch = ["../Folder1", "../Folder2"]_ however it seems to be working just fine.

Research direction
No source files or tests are named in the issue. Reproduce the problem with a Workspace containing multiple crates and watch entries such as "Folder1" and "Folder2", then trace how watch paths are resolved. Done means workspace watch directories resolve from the intended root without requiring ../ prefixes.
