/* dir.c - directory scanning and caching */

/* How it works:
 *
 * A Directory contains a list DirItems, each having a name and some details
 * (size, image, owner, etc).
 *
 * There is a list of file names that need to be rechecked. While this
 * list is non-empty, items are taken from the list in an idle callback
 * and checked. Missing items are removed from the Directory, new items are
 * added and existing items are updated if they've changed.
 *
 * When a whole directory is to be rescanned:
 * 
 * - A list of all filenames in the directory is fetched, without any
 *   of the extra details.
 * - This list is compared to the current DirItems, removing any that are now
 *   missing.
 * - The recheck list is replaced with this new list.
 *
 * This system is designed to get the number of items and their names quickly,
 * so that the auto-sizer can make a good guess.
 *
 * To get the Directory object, use dir_cache, which will automatically
 * trigger a rescan if needed.
 *
 * To get notified when the Directory changes, use the dir_attach() and
 * dir_detach() functions.
