You are correct, which shows that since all tests pass, we need to
come up with better cases for this function.
As for a solution, I believe that the best way to go for it is to
dir_iterator's implementation to have an "Option to iterate over
directory paths before vs. after their contents" (something predicted
in the commit that created it). If it iterates over directories after
all of its contents (currently it does so before) we just need to
check if the entry is a directory and if so, rmdir() it. Does that
make sense?
