find: Add the -maxdepth and -mindepth options

Browse source 
The `-maxdepth` option limits the number of levels `find` will descend
into the file system for each given starting point.

The `-mindepth` option causes commands not to be evaluated until the
specified depth is reached.

## Commands
* `-maxdepth n`: Do not descend more than `n` levels below each path given on
the command line. Specifying `-maxdepth 0` has the effect of only evaluating
each command line argument.
* `-mindepth n`: Descend `n` levels below each path given on the command line
before executing any commands. Specifying `-mindepth 1` has the effect of
processing all files except the command line arguments.
* `-type t`: Checks if the file is of the specified type, which must be one of
`b` (for block device), `c` (character device), `d` (directory), `l` (symbolic
link), `p` (FIFO), `f` (regular file), and `s` (socket).
