copy: Implement recursive copying if src is a directory.
If src param to copy is a directory, all files under it are collected and pushed one by one to target. Source dir path handled in a way simalar to rsync: if it ends with slash, only inside contents of directory are copied to destination, otherwise the dir itself is copied (with all contents of course). Original idea and implementation by https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/1809 . Rewritten to address review comments and simplify/correct logic.

with "/", only inside contents of that directory are copied to destination.

Otherwise, if it does not end with "/", the directory itself with all contents

notes:
|
||||
- The "copy" module can't be used to recursively copy directory structures to the target machine. Please see the
|
||||
"Delegation" section of the Advanced Playbooks documentation for a better approach to recursive copies.
|
||||
- The "copy" module recursively copy facility does not scale to lots (>hundreds) of files.
|
||||
For alternative, see "Delegation" section of the Advanced Playbooks documentation.
