[PR 2930](https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2930) was closed due to the
branch in my fork being removed before adding the new filter-mode-based
changes. @bbende @ottobackwards, this PR implements the use cases discussed in
the previous PR:
- filename only
- filename and directory name
- full path
> ListHDFS applies File Filter also to subdirectory names in recursive search

> Key: NIFI-4434
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4434
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: Holger Frydrych
> Assignee: Jeff Storck
> Priority: Major
>
> The File Filter regex configured in the ListHDFS processor is applied not
> just to files found, but also to subdirectories.
> If you try to set up a recursive search to list e.g. all csv files in a
> directory hierarchy via a regex like ".*\.csv", it will only pick up csv
> files in the base directory, not in any subdirectory. This is because
> subdirectories don't typically match that regex pattern.
> To fix this, either subdirectories should not be matched against the file
> filter, or the file filter should be applied to the full path of all files
> (relative to the base directory). The GetHDFS processor offers both options
> via a switch.
