can't we just use https://www.npmjs.com/package/fast-glob ? it's faster and supports streams so we can go directly to pull-stream

I tried it, and it's not significantly faster than glob, in fact in most tests it's slower (left is glob, right is fast-glob).

even using streams instead of glob events ? seems weird but if its faster like this im good with it

I know weird, maybe it is the stream to pull stream conversion? Anyway even weirder is that the benchmarks for fast-glob do not run against glob 😱 They benchmark globby, bash-glob, tiny-glob and glob-stream...but not regular glob 🙄.

lol that kinda wtf and globby is based on fast-glob with some sindre sugar on top
anyway this looks fine and if your benchs show better numbers lets merge it

This PR adds a new method [`addFromFs`](https://github.com/ipfs/interface-ipfs-core/blob/master/SPEC/FILES.md#addfromfs) allowing users to more easily add files from their file system without having to specify every single file to add. In the browser the user will receive a "not available" error. I've pulled out a module `glob-source.js` - call it with some file paths and it returns a pull stream source that can be piped to `ipfs.addPullStream`. This PR comes with the following added benefits: * `ipfs add` on the CLI uses `glob-source.js` - **nice and DRY** * `glob-source.js` uses the events that the `glob` module provides allowing the globbing to be a `pull-pushable`, which means that matched paths can begin to be added before all the globbing is done - **faster** * `ipfs add` now supports adding multiple paths, fixes #1625 - **better** * `ipfs add --progress=false` doesn't calculate the total size of the files to be added anymore! It didn't need to do that as the total was completely discarded when progress was disabled. It means we can add BIGGER directories without running into memory issues - **stronger** License: MIT Signed-off-by: Alan Shaw <alan.shaw@protocol.ai>
