Add a new `-l`/`--list` option to show more details about the search results. This is basically
an alias for `--exec-batch ls -l` with some additional `ls` options.
This can be used in order to:
* see metadata like permissions, owner, file size, modification times (#491)
* see symlink targets (#482)
* achieve a deterministic output order (#324, #196, #159)
* avoid duplicate search results when multiple search paths are given (#405)
This new option can be used instead of piping to `head -n <count>` for
improved performance:
| Command | Mean [ms] | Min [ms] | Max [ms] | Relative |
|:---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| `fd --max-buffer-time=0 flow.yaml` | 153.9 ± 2.5 | 151.3 | 170.3 | 4.21 ± 5.86 |
| `fd --max-buffer-time=0 flow.yaml \| head -n 1` | 145.3 ± 17.4 | 111.0 | 180.2 | 3.98 ± 5.55 |
| `fd --max-results=1 flow.yaml` | 36.5 ± 50.8 | 7.2 | 145.7 | 1.00 |
Note: there is a large standard deviation on the last result due to the
non-deterministic file system traversal. With `--max-results`, we don't
have to traverse the whole filesystem tree, so it's all about luck.

Instead of having the option do nothing at runtime on unsupported
platforms, it is now only available on the systems that support it in
the first place.
This adds a `--same-file-system` CLI option that instructs the walker to
not cross file system boundaries.
Due to the fact that the corresponding option of the `ignore` crate's
`WalkBuilder` does not support platforms other than Unix and Windows,
the option does nothing on platforms other than those.
Resolves#507
* Multiple `--search-path` arguments can be supplied which replace the positional `path` argument for providing directories which will be searched.
* When a `--search-path` argument is provided, positional `path` arguments will not be allowed
For muscle memory compatibility with `rg`. This variant will not show in
the help or in the program options, and is only checked if `--maxdepth`
is not specified.
Add a new `empty`/`e` type to search for empty files and/or directories.
To search for both empty files and directories, use one of the
following:
fd --type empty
fd -te
fd --type empty --type file --type directory
To search for empty files, use
fd --type empty --type file
fd -te -tf
To search for empty directories, use
fd --type empty --type directory
fd -te -td
