Read folder structure correctly for custom symbols.

GNS3 v2.2.0rc5

I would be nice if GNS3 server can read custom symbols from nested folder and show them grouped just like it was done for affinity symbols.

As for now workaround is to put folder with symbols to /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/gns3server/symbols/

This should be supported already. Please comment if this isn't the case. Thanks.

I see 2.2.11 still has same issue.

Mode detailed explanation:

This is folder where gns3 will be looking for symbols: /opt/gns3/symbols/ (it is form gns3 config).
In this folder I have another folder - 3DN where all my 3d symbols located. I might have another folder "sibling" of 3DN with more symbols.

The issue:
GNS3 will merge all symbols in all nested folders and show then as "Custom symbols" one category.

However it would be nicer to have folder read correctly and show it as you see with 3dn folder on screenshot (this is same 3DN placed in /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/gns3server/symbols/.

Basically my ask is to make same behavior but for subfolders in /opt/gns3/symbols/.

Hopefully it make sense. Let me know if need more info.
