duplicate of this PR: #8763
previous pr got closed due to branch rename, sorry
This PR limits the directories that RW searches through when running generators.
It is meant to fix an issue where RW tries to scan directories with restricted permissions, resulting in generation failure.
the pr also adds documentation to functions related to finding directory named modules and comments out a function that is exported but is not used anywhere in the project.
addresses #7761
