bug#46884: 27.1; Cannot run find-dired with -maxdepth

[Allen Li]

I don't, but I rewrote it from scratch with a different approach.

In short, introduce a command that allows running an arbitrary find command, and rewrite the existing find-dired on top of said command.

This hopefully sidesteps any bikeshedding.  If anyone wants any particular command API, they can write their own command on top.  For one-off usage, the user can build their command manually.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

Allen, do you have an updated version of the patch?
