Fix for Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) - please release new version

[Arun-KumarH]

for-ever monitor is using an old version of chokidar
"chokidar": "^1.7.0" and this has a dependency on braces package which has below vulnerability.

WS-2019-0019
(https://github.com/micromatch/braces/commit/abdafb0cae1e0c00f184abbadc692f4eaa98f451)
moderate severity
Vulnerable versions: < 2.3.1
Patched version: 2.3.1

Version of braces prior to 2.3.1 are vulnerable to Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS). Untrusted input may cause catastrophic backtracking while matching regular expressions. This can cause the application to be unresponsive leading to Denial of Service.

Can we expect a new release after the dependencies being updated ?
