<para>
Like <function>mapAttrsRecursive</function>, but it takes an additional
predicate function that tells it whether to recursive into an attribute set.
If it returns false, <function>mapAttrsRecursiveCond</function> does not
recurse, but does apply the map function. It is returns true, it does
recurse, and does not apply the map function.
