Fix incorrect setting of nonRecursive watch field

[sheetalkamat]

It was meant to be nonRecursive and we treat as same but set was set incorrectly from start when added in #25811

I can't say I know what's going on here but there's clearly a comment right above there that says it should be non-recursive 😄

What does it mean when Recursive is blank?

[sheetalkamat]

If second column (path to watch) is blank recursive is blank meaning these kind of paths will be ignored for setting directory watchers

[DanielRosenwasser]

So there's a comment above like

// Instead of watching root, watch directory in root to avoid watching excluded directories not needed for module resolution

How does that interact with stuff like node_modules which is typically ignored, but which typically is included into the program anyway?

say a.ts has import to bar. The failed lookup location will be root/node_modules/bar/bar.d.ts
At this point we want to watch root/node_modules instead of watching root. This helps with scenarios where there are unrelated folders in root. Eg say you have root/scripts. If you were watching root, you would need to go through all the the the resolutions and their failed lookups only to find that it doesnt matter. So lot of unnecessary work.
