Writing it here to gauge an interest of the community for a glob crate. If
it seems people are liking the idea, I'll write an RFC for it and send a PR.
I'm guessing the majority of the folks here already know what it is, as
it's pretty universal and used heavily in unix-based environments.
(One *could* use a simple regex, but the interface wouldn't be the most
ideal)
Something like:
```rust
use glob::Glob;
fn main() {
let fn globber = Glob::new(r"foo/**/*.rs");
let list = vec!["foo/hello.rs", "foo/foo2/woot.rs"];
match globber.match(list.get(0)) {
// ...
}
// Or you could match all and you would get a Result<Vec<String>> where
// the contents of the vector are only the matched occurrences.
globber.match_all(list);
}
```
Thoughts?
