Extension methods for openat::Dir and std::fs::File

use openat_ext::OpenatDirExt;

The openat crate is a low-level API, generally just exposing thin wrappers for the underlying system call. This crate offers a number of common higher level convenience functions.

More recently, there is also an FileExt available; it currently just contains an optimized file copy method that will hopefully go into the standard library.

This project is deprecated

Still maintained for now, but deprecated. Instead, we are focusing on cap-std and the successor to this crate is cap-std-ext.
