Summary
The file watcher tests sometimes flake locally (macOS only).
I suspect that this is mainly happening because all file watcher test setup native file watchers at once with high concurrency,
which, what i suspect, leads to overwhelming the OS filewatcher.
This PR adds a custom test group for the file watching tests that enforces that they run serial.
Test Plan
Verified that nextest recognizes the configuration:
and runs the tests serial
