    Transform a directory tree containing package files suitable for

    For a directory tree like this:

    ```
    my-packages
    ├── a.nix
    ├── b.nix
    ├── c
    │  ├── my-extra-feature.patch
    │  ├── package.nix
    │  └── support-definitions.nix
    └── my-namespace
       ├── d.nix
       ├── e.nix
       └── f
          └── package.nix
    ```

    `packagesFromDirectoryRecursive` will produce an attribute set like this:

    ```nix
    # packagesFromDirectoryRecursive {
    #   callPackage = pkgs.callPackage;
    #   directory = ./my-packages;
    # }
    {
      a = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/a.nix { };
      b = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/b.nix { };
      c = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/c/package.nix { };
      my-namespace = {
        d = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/my-namespace/d.nix { };
        e = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/my-namespace/e.nix { };
        f = pkgs.callPackage ./my-packages/my-namespace/f/package.nix { };
      };
    }
    ```

    In particular:
    - If the input directory contains a `package.nix` file, then
      `callPackage <directory>/package.nix { }` is returned.
    - Otherwise, the input directory's contents are listed and transformed into
      an attribute set.
      - If a file name has the `.nix` extension, it is turned into attribute
        where:
        - The attribute name is the file name without the `.nix` extension
        - The attribute value is `callPackage <file path> { }`
      - Other files are ignored.
      - Directories are turned into an attribute where:
        - The attribute name is the name of the directory
        - The attribute value is the result of calling
          `packagesFromDirectoryRecursive { ... }` on the directory.

        As a result, directories with no `.nix` files (including empty
        directories) will be transformed into empty attribute sets.

      packagesFromDirectoryRecursive {
        inherit (pkgs) callPackage;
        directory = ./my-packages;
