Convert a Vector of Paths to a Matrix of Subfolders

to_subdir_matrix(
  paths,
  fill.value = "",
  result_type = "matrix",
  dbg = FALSE,
  method = NA_integer_
)

`paths`	vector of path strings
`fill.value`	value used to fill empty cells of the result matrix
`result_type`	one of `c("matrix", "data.frame", "list")`, specifying the type of object to be returned. Result type "list" is only implemented for `method = 2`.
`dbg`	if `TRUE` debug messages are shown
`method`	integer specifying the implementation method. Currently not used.

matrix or data frame, depending on result_type

folder_matrix <- kwb.file::to_subdir_matrix(c("a1/b1/c1", "a1/b2", "a2"))

folder_matrix

dim(folder_matrix)

folder_matrix[folder_matrix[, 1] == "a1", ]
