(#5477) Allow watch_file to watch non-existent files, especially site.pp
The watch_file mechanism would refuse to monitor paths to files that
didn't exist. This patch makes it possible to watch a file that hasn't
been created yet, so when it is created, you manifests will get
reparsed.
Backported this change to 2.6.x
