Remove shadow BaseException class

The BaseException class defined in exceptions.py is shadowing the
built-in BaseException class of the Python exception hierarchy, which
could potentially cause confusion.

This removes the BaseException definition and replaces it with the
existing WatcherException object.  Instantiations of the
IllegalArgumentException are also changed to use the message kwarg.
