Support starting from a specified directory, not just current working directory

[shepmaster]

From the documentation:

which may be absolute or relative to the current working directory.

I'd like to be able to say something like glob_from(path_like_thing, "glob_pattern").

FYI, this is one of the features of "globwalk" that isn't in "glob": https://github.com/gilnaa/globwalk#why-not-glob

Is this issue still relevant for glob? This issue seems to suggest to you don't need a specialized API for this, instead it's possible to just modify the pattern to include the full path.

Is it significant for the starting directory and the pattern to be separate?
