Farid Zakaria 5f1d1bc57e lib: Add readTree function to filesystem
Add a friendly function to easily return a flattened list of files
within a directory.

This is useful if you want to easily iterate or concatSep the list of
files all found within a directory.
(i.e. when constructing Java's CLASSPATH)

Style improvements
