This is a major refactor of the CachingCompiler added in #51 that adds support for binary files. There's further refinement of the concepts, and Filer was the best name I could come up with for the role that it plays. It's the primary interface with the filesystem, watching for changes and writing efficiently back to disk, and it compiles files when they change and figures out how to efficiently update the caches in memory and on disk. It's now integrated with both the dev server for serving files and it's used in one-off compilations, not just watch mode. It will also have subscriptions soon to support things like live-reloading CSS. It's basically the heart of the Gro development process, and though we'll likely want to extract concerns out of it and make it more flexible and modular in the future, I'm okay with the high amount of complexity it deals with internally.

There's more work to be done to support unbundled development with Svelte, but this gets us much closer.
