filelog receiver include doesn't support multiple directory levels

[overmeulen]

Describe the bug
Using ** in the filelog receiver include pattern only picks up 1 directory level

Steps to reproduce
Collector config:

receivers:
  filelog:
    include: [ /data/**/*.log ]

What did you expect to see?
/data/A/B/test.log being watched by the filelog receiver

What did you see instead?
/data/A/test.log being watched but not /data/A/B/test.log (check the collector logs)

What version did you use?
opentelemetry-collector-contrib v0.31.0

I tried it some days ago and it was working for me.
Are you sure you didn't missed to mount your host log folder in you collector container (if you use docker).
Have you a log in console saying it can't find a file with the pattern ?

[overmeulen]

I'm not using docker in this case, and there is nothing in the console...

If there is nothing on the console it's strange. You should have at least something saying there is no files in the given path. Have you add it on the pipelines section ? 🤔
