Adding the ability to get realtime changes on files for the purpose of push-notification/webhook style watching and for folks to be able to implement sync clients without trying too hard. Work in progress: * Need to ask some Google Drive platform folks what the various Channel types are. I've currently found `web_hook` but that requires registration by the user. * If there is a persistent connection that pushes notifications say over HTTP2, let's use that instead of having to hop over web hooks. * Actually we can do changeList retrieval but we'll have to implement polling AFAIK unless there is some magic sauce as point 2) is hopeful about.
