dirGetter

This functions returns a new function that will handle updating the folder
tree. It is the folder equivalent of <code>fileGetter()</code> but functions
slightly different as it needs to handle expanded branches of the folder
hierarchy rather than just the content of a single directory at a time. The
returned function takes a representation of a folder hierarchy along with the
root to where it belongs and updates the tree to correspond with the current
state of the file system, without altering expansions etc.

Provides functionality for client-side navigation of
the server side file system in shiny apps. In case the app is running
locally this gives the user direct access to the file system without the
need to "download" files to a temporary location. Both file and folder
selection as well as file saving is available.
