As it stands, hymount only fetches the file list once during the mount operation and never again. This could lead to issues where file tags update or change.

todo: check if hydrus is able to provide a listener for file changes, this can and probably will lead to absolute horrid performance on large databases but could be a nice toggle.

Automatic message: Note: the Hydrus Client API has no file-change listener — no webhook, WebSocket, SSE or subscription endpoint exists. There is no "something changed since X" feed either, so change detection has to be polling (re-run the search + file_metadata on an interval and diff against the index), with an interval/toggle to keep it cheap on large databases.
