Allow glob-style patterns in `Application.output` ? #202

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

1) What part of the model would need changes:

All the backends: they would need to interpret the "remote file name"
in `Application.output` as a glob pattern instead of a as a literal
file name/path.

2) What is the reason why the changes is proposed:

Makes it easier to write applications where the number of output files
is not known in advance, yet we are not interested in all of them --
just some.  (Examples are "minirosetta" and "MHC_coev".)

3) What is the proposal:

Have backends treat the "remote file name" part in
`Application.output` as a glob pattern instead of a as a literal file
name/path, and only copy/upload the files corresponding to that
pattern. 

Might pose an issue with URL destinations: since the upload is then
done by the ARC uploader, we are dependent on features they have
implemented.
