Research direction
Start by reading the ui5-builder component and comparing its current task execution with the external npm-watch approach described in the issue. Define how per-task glob patterns and changed-file information should work, including how this relates to the development server. Done means the builder supports watch-mode execution for selected resources and documents the behavior.

Description
Expected Behavior
It would be a nice enhancement to the builder as such to enable a watch mode. This means it should be possible to define a watch pattern per task which defines via glob patterns which resources should be monitored and then the task should be called with the information of the files being changed. That change allows to run the ui5 tooling in a watch mode and implement smart incremental builds. This contradicts a bit the development server, maybe this concept can be also used for that.
Current Behavior
Today, the only option to run a watch mode behavior is to implement this with an external watch task (npm-watch) which can run the whole build or single tasks.
