Description
In a project I am currently working on, I have a typst paper within a larger python project, and am importing code from python modules in the same directory. It would be great to be able to pass a wildcard, i.e. *.py to the watch command, and have it reset the cache and rebuild when any of the matched files changes. This could also be useful for input data files, i.e. a wildcard on *.csv or the like.

Research direction
Start by locating the watch command and the cache-reset and rebuild logic. Add support for wildcard paths such as *.py and *.csv, then verify that changes to matching files reset the cache and trigger a rebuild.
