lib: add collectFiles and collectFilesAt

These are lib functions that recursively read a directory, and return
files in the format expected by `files`/`symlinks`. This makes it
possible to, for example, link all mods from a modpack, and still
include additional mods/configs.

+This will symlink the modpack's final `mods` directory into the server's `mods` directory, and copy the specified config files into `config`. You can also do this for any files in the modpack you're interested in, in a granular way.
 
 **Note**: Be sure to use a stable URL (e.g. a git tag/commit) to the manifest, as it changing will cause the derivation to generate a different hash, breaking the build until you change it.
 
-The built modpack also exports a `manifest` attribute, that allows you to get any information from its `pack.toml` file, such as the MC or Modloader version. You can, this way, always sync the server's version with the one the modpack recommends:
+Adding config files one by-one is boring. Trying to include an additional mod will also fail, as `mods` is read-only and symlinked as is. To solve these issues, this flake provides a `collectFilesAt` function, that recursively collects every file on the given directory (e.g. `config`), and returns an attribute set in the format `symlinks`/`files` expects. For example:
 
 ```nix
+{ inputs, ... }:
 let
+  inherit (inputs.nix-minecraft.lib) collectFilesAt;
   modpack = pkgs.fetchPackwizModpack {
     url = "https://github.com/Misterio77/Modpack/raw/0.2.9/pack.toml";
     packHash = "sha256-L5RiSktqtSQBDecVfGj1iDaXV+E90zrNEcf4jtsg+wk=";
   };
-  mcVersion = modpack.manifest.versions.minecraft;
-  fabricVersion = modpack.manifest.versions.fabric;
-  serverVersion = lib.replaceStrings [ "." ] [ "_" ] "fabric-${mcVersion}";
 in
 {
   services.minecraft-servers.servers.cool-modpack = {
     enable = true;
-    package = pkgs.fabricServers.${serverVersion}.override { loaderVersion = fabricVersion; };
-    symlinks = {
-      "mods" = "${modpack}/mods";
+    package = pkgs.fabricServers.fabric-1_18_2-0_14_9;
+    symlinks = collectFilesAt modpack "mods" // {
+      "mods/FabricProxy-lite.jar" = pkgs.fetchurl rec {
+        pname = "FabricProxy-Lite";
+        version = "1.1.6";
+        url = "https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/8dI2tmqs/versions/v${version}/${pname}-${version}.jar";
+        hash = "sha256-U+nXvILXlYdx0vgomVDkKxj0dGCtw60qW22EK4FhAJk=";
+      };
+    };
+    files = collectFilesAt modpack "config" // {
+      "config/server-specific.conf".value = {
+        example = "foo-bar";
+      };
     };
   };
 }

-**Note**: Using `manifest`, by default, will cause [IFD](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Import_From_Derivation). If you want to avoid IFD while still having access to `manifest`, simply pass a `manifestHash` to the `fetchPackwizModpack` function, it will then fetch the manifest through `builtins.fetchurl`.
