Add a friendly function to easily return a flattened list of files
within a directory.
This is useful if you want to easily iterate or concatSep the list of
files all found within a directory.
(i.e. when constructing Java's CLASSPATH)
Style improvements

Right now, running `nixos-rebuild` gives an obscure error:
```
$ nixos-rebuild switch
building Nix...
building the system configuration...
error: Abandoned by upstream. Consider switching to bottom instead
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
```
(And `--show-trace` adds no useful information.)
The error message doesn't indicate that `ytop` is what's causing the problem.
By adding `ytop` to the error message, configurations that still reference
`ytop` will be easier to debug and fix.
Foremost, the message was discarding double quotes on one side of the
diff, which was super-confusing to me, as I thought that the format
convertor broke that when in fact only whitespace was changed.
I thought I'd cat the files, but then... switching to `diff -u` seemed
self-sufficient. It felt sufficiently non-controversial to push
directly, but certainly feel free to improve further.
These are fixes for problems I ran into with:
- `bazel test //example:cpp-test`
This needed `build --host_javabase='@local_jdk//:jdk'`
- `bazel query 'deps(//example:cpp-test)'`
This needed the same flags as `build`.
Is it contentious to (partially?) configure the default java toolchain? I don't see it as much different than providing the bazel server's java.
It would continue to be configurable/overridable by overriding the flags.

And a random notes from this escapade, but https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/blob/master/WORKSPACE#L144-L308 looks a little different from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/tools/build-managers/bazel/bazel_3/src-deps.json so one of them is probably wrong :)
For a lot of the work the non-interactive drivers are enough and it is
probably a good idea to keep it accessible for debugging without
touching the Nix expression.
