Patch #943206:
`glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo`` entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob` recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``. I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be duplicated). Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!
