Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it.
Currently if mupdf is used as a viewer, it will not automatically refresh when the PDF file change.

Describe the solution you'd like
Implement it. It can be done by sending HUP signal to the mupdf process https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/425907/how-to-make-mupdf-automatically-refresh-a-document

At least just spawning kill -HUP <pid> work in UNIX environments, not sure about Windows.


Edit: we can use job_stop() in vim to signal SIGHUP, but still not sure if it works on Windows.
