Per discussion on Discord, this PR adds a new installer directive
file_glob
which allows searching the filesystem for files and putting them in an alias to be referenced later. The immediate use case is to locate Vulkan json files that have slightly different naming schemes on different distros.For testing purposes I also added alias substitution to input_menu keys and values, and that feels like a useful feature to keep. I can take it out, if necessary.
