Ensure @tailwindcss/cli watches the input file (#20246)
This PR fixes an issue where if the `--input` file (when using
`@tailwindcss/cli`) lives in an ignored folder, then changes to the
input file won't trigger a rebuild.

This happened in #17632 where the input file lives in the `assets/`
folder which is ignored by default.

However, if you make a change to the input file, then the CLI doesn't
restart which means that you can't update the `@source` directives
without quitting the program and re-starting it manually.

This PR solves that by automatically injecting an `@source` with the
path to the input file. This way the CLI will see changes, even if the
input file is in an ignored directory.

Fixes: #17632
