Add support for globstar syntax ("**") in

forFilenameMatch
sCurrently globstar is only supported in pathname mode, because I first thought that it doesn't make sense if * already matches any character.
But now I think it would be useful, e.g. to support patterns like for gitignore. (Shouldn't be too difficult to implement, probably only removing some if clauses)
So happy to discuss this here.
There's a bunch of test cases in 'runtests.jl' (I have refactored the tests a bit by putting them in testsets.)
