Glob class
A glob for matching and listing files and directories.
A glob matches an entire string as a path. Although the glob pattern uses
POSIX syntax, it can match against POSIX, Windows, or URL paths. The format
it expects paths to use is based on the context parameter to new Glob;
it defaults to the current system's syntax.
Paths are normalized before being matched against a glob, so for example the
glob foo/bar matches the path foo/./bar. A relative glob can match an
absolute path and vice versa; globs and paths are both interpreted as
relative to context.current, which defaults to the current working
directory.
When used as a Pattern, a glob will return either one or zero matches for a string depending on whether the entire string matches the glob. These matches don't currently have capture groups, although this may change in the future.
