This PR modifies the post-compile reloading of client-side files to only occur if compilation changed the file's contents (for example, modifying the Storage). The current behavior always reloads the file's contents. This is rarely necessary and leads to a bunch of extra REST requests and file system events.
Created this as a draft because while it's an improvement architecturally, I'm not sure if it necessarily improves UX. The reloading will replace the contents of classes with the contents in the server "canonical" form. Even when not necessarily functionally, some users may want this enforced to avoid larger source control diffs when the class does actually need to be reloaded due to compilation.
