When being (re)configured, do not delay dereferencing our fsnotify.Watcher into the start()/watch() goroutine. That is not protected by the lock in Configure() and can trigger a read/write data race. Instead, dereference it while being properly locked and pass it as an argument to watch().
Fixes #81 which should fix this containerd PR once this fix gets tagged and that containerd PR is updated to use the fix.
This PR also adds a regression test with a gutted version of the containerd test case that triggered this bug.
