This small PR proposes two key improvements:

  1. Only start the reload indicator service if a reload-aware item is actually present in the status bar, avoiding unnecessary background activity.

  2. Extend reload-aware items with a watching state to indicate when the file monitor is active and waiting for changes (a state that is otherwise visually indistinguishable from the file monitor simply being disabled). So, for example, it becomes possible to have an indicator that behaves like this:

idle watching reload
Idle (disabled) Watching Reload
