Summary

Summary
Improve the developer experience of ruff --watch by adding the ability to:

1. Ignore specific directories or files

2. Debounce file change events to reduce redundant action on rapid save operations or bulk changes

3. Ignore Directories or Files
   Problem:
   Currently, it seems that ruff --watch triggers on all file changes. Again, it seems to be me that --exclude does not apply linting rules, but --watch still triggers.

• Unnecessary linter runs
• Jankiness/Flashing
• Excessive CPU usage

Proposed Solution:
Introduce a CLI flag (and/or config option in pyproject.toml) to ignore specific directories or glob patterns. Example:

ruff --watch --ignore-dirs node_modules,.venv,build,dist```

pyproject.toml:

``toml
[tool.ruff.watch]
ignore = ["node_modules", ".venv", "build", "dist"]

2. Debounce File Events
   similar to the above, to reduce overwork on fast file changes.
