Debouncing of file updates in monitored dir

Now updates to ZIM files that failed to be added to the library upon
their appearance in a monitored dir are not handled immediately. Instead
they are debounced (deferred/delayed by 1 second) and processed only
after the file has been observed to be stable for some time (1 second as
of this commit).
