updateChildren

This function create new entries for new folders and remove entries for no
longer existing folders, while keeping the state of transient folders in the
children element of the tree structure. The function does not recurse into
the folders, but merely creates a shell that traverseDirs can take as input.

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.
