Mish Ushakov da85b1e33c feat(sdk): add includeEntry option to filesystem watch (#1385)
Client-side counterpart to
[e2b-dev/infra#2930](https://github.com/e2b-dev/infra/pull/2930): adds
an `includeEntry`/`include_entry` option to filesystem directory
watching across the JS and Python (sync + async) SDKs, so each
`FilesystemEvent` can carry the affected entry's `EntryInfo`
(best-effort — unset for remove/rename-away events where the path no
longer exists). This regenerates the filesystem proto code from the
updated spec, threads the flag through `watchDir`/`watch_dir` (streaming
`WatchDir` and polling `CreateWatcher`), maps the new `entry` field onto
the event, and extracts a shared entry-mapping helper reused by
`list`/`getInfo`/`rename`. The option degrades gracefully: older
sandboxes (< envd 0.6.2) ignore it and leave `entry` unset, so there's
no hard version gate. Includes new watch tests for all three SDKs and a
minor-bump changeset for `e2b` and `@e2b/python-sdk`.

> Note: the entry-info tests require envd 0.6.2 (shipped by the infra
PR), so this should land with/after that deploy.

### Usage

**JavaScript**
```ts
const handle = await sandbox.files.watchDir(
  'my-dir',
  (event) => {
    console.log(event.type, event.name, event.entry?.path, event.entry?.type)
  },
  { includeEntry: true }
)
```

**Python (async)**
```python
def on_event(e):
    print(e.type, e.name, e.entry.path if e.entry else None)

handle = await sandbox.files.watch_dir("my-dir", on_event=on_event, include_entry=True)
```

**Python (sync)**
```python
handle = sandbox.files.watch_dir("my-dir", include_entry=True)
for e in handle.get_new_events():
    print(e.type, e.name, e.entry.path if e.entry else None)
```

Add an includeEntry/include_entry option to filesystem directory watching. When enabled, each FilesystemEvent carries the affected entry's EntryInfo (best-effort; left unset for events where the path no longer exists, such as remove/rename-away). Requires envd 0.6.3 or later; watching with this option against an older sandbox raises a template error.
