[Patch] DirectoryScanner

- Added javadoc (@param etc)
- changed from <CODE> to <code> for XHTML compliance
- removed unnecessary nesting
if (condition) {
  return foo;
} else {  <-- not required - although I can see that in some ways it 
helps readability
  if (conition) {
    return bar;
  }

No unit tests with this

Yes, sorry typo, but a very bad one at that since it is the complete 
opposite of the code.

I wonder if there is a javadoc tool that will check the semantic meaning 
of comments against code - similar to checkstyle but comparing method 
code vs doc comments.  That would catch these mistakes without hassling 
overworked commiters :)

Sorry again, I'll try to be more careful with anything else that I 
submit. /me suitably chastised.

Is that the doc for isFollowSymlinks() that you have
changed to "Sets whether..."?
