Support globbing in depends-on #17

Closed ruricolist closed 5 years ago

It would be very natural to write (depends-on #p"*.txt"), but it is not currently supported.

This is not as simple as expanding the wildcard and depending on each file; we must also include a dependency on the set of files the wildcard describes. E.g. if a new file with a .txt extension is added to the directory, that should trigger a rebuild.
