feat: show directories last

For example, it will be quite useful to use this feature alongside --tree
as then when printing a deeply nested directory structure, all the files
within each directory will be listed first and then the remaining deeply
nested directory subtree within it will be printed, giving the users a
far better understanding of which files are within each folder.
