Feature #4937: support merging of source directories

With `recurse => true`, puppet can install whole directories. In combination 
with the multi-select source syntax (`source => [ one, two, three ]`), it might 
make sense to let puppet merge directories: copy the first directory 
recursively, then the second one, overwriting existing files, then the third…

I would find this useful because I could provide module that installs empty 
directories by default (logcheck), but would let the user trivially add files 
to be installed (by adding files to `modules/site-logcheck/files/…/`) without 
having to mention those files in a manifest.
