[issue11406] There is no os.listdir() equivalent returning generator instead of list

[Марк Коренберг]

Марк Коренберг <socketpair at gmail.com> added the comment:

also, forgot... memory usage on big directories using list is a pain.

This is the same things as range() and xrange(). Why not to add os.xlistdir() ?

P.S.
Numerical answers will be available later.
