// descendants of a filesystem path.
// Successive calls to the Step method will step through each
// file or directory in the tree, including the root. The files
// are walked in lexical order, which makes the output deterministic
// but means that for very large directories Walker can be inefficient.
// Walker does not follow symbolic links.
