* nil: return all entries,
* true: return only subdirectory names, or
* false: return only file names.
* `minetest.safe_file_write(path, content)`: returns boolean indicating success
* Replaces contents of file at path with new contents in a safe (atomic) way.

engine version. Components:
* `project`: Name of the project, eg, "Minetest"
