// File searching functions for 'path', 'tags' and 'cdpath' options.
//
// External visible functions:
//   vim_findfile_init()          creates/initialises the search context
//   vim_findfile_free_visited()  free list of visited files/dirs of search
//                                context
//   vim_findfile()               find a file in the search context
//   vim_findfile_cleanup()       cleanup/free search context created by
//                                vim_findfile_init()
//
// All static functions and variables start with 'ff_'
//
// In general it works like this:
// First you create yourself a search context by calling vim_findfile_init().
// It is possible to give a search context from a previous call to
// vim_findfile_init(), so it can be reused. After this you call vim_findfile()
// until you are satisfied with the result or it returns NULL. On every call it
// returns the next file which matches the conditions given to
// vim_findfile_init(). If it doesn't find a next file it returns NULL.
//
// It is possible to call vim_findfile_init() again to reinitialise your search
// with some new parameters. Don't forget to pass your old search context to
// it, so it can reuse it and especially reuse the list of already visited
// directories. If you want to delete the list of already visited directories
// simply call vim_findfile_free_visited().
//
// When you are done call vim_findfile_cleanup() to free the search context.
//
// The function vim_findfile_init() has a long comment, which describes the
// needed parameters.
//
//
//
// ATTENTION:
// ==========
// We use an allocated search context, these functions are NOT thread-safe!!!!!
//
// To minimize parameter passing (or because I'm too lazy), only the
// external visible functions get a search context as a parameter. This is
// then assigned to a static global, which is used throughout the local
// functions.
