A library for matching files using patterns such as "src/**/*.png" for
all .png files recursively under the src directory. Features:
* All matching is O(n). Most functions precompute some information
given only one argument.
* See "System.FilePattern" and '?==' simple matching and semantics.
* Use 'match' and 'substitute' to extract suitable strings from the *
and ** matches, and substitute them back into other patterns.
* Use 'step' and 'matchMany' to perform bulk matching of many patterns
against many paths simultaneously.
* Use "System.FilePattern.Directory" to perform optimised directory
traverals using patterns.
