//@ ### find(path_array)
//@ Examples:
//@
//@ ```javascript
//@ find('src', 'lib');
//@ find(['src', 'lib']); // same as above
//@ find('.').filter(function(file) { return file.match(/\.js$/); });
//@ ```
//@
//@ Returns array of all files (however deep) in the given paths.
//@
//@ The main difference from `ls('-R', path)` is that the resulting file names
//@ include the base directories, e.g. `lib/resources/file1` instead of just `file1`.
