Description

This seems like a convenient feature. That the compiler in "deamon mode" watches a directory of SUS files, and whenever a file changes, update the generated verilog files.

This should alleviate the friction of using SUS in proprietary environments

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the daemon mode codebase to understand how it currently works. Research file watching libraries in Rust (e.g., notify). Plan implementation: use notify to watch the specified directory for changes, then trigger the compilation pipeline for the changed file.
