Golly, I didn't even know it was distributed separately on PyPI. I
still would prefer bundling this inside the extension though;
batteries included and all that. Otherwise you need to ask end users
to install 2 pieces of software rather than one, where watchman is a
binary and doesn't require knowledge of how Python package installs
work.
