FileWatcher uses stat() / _stat() to sample a file's modification timestamp. HasChanged() returns true the first time it detects a newer timestamp than the one recorded at Watch() / Reset() time.

No filesystem-watcher OS dependency — pure polling via <sys/stat.h>.

C++14 compliant — no std::optional, structured bindings, std::filesystem.
