Description

Somehow, the recursion level of the generic method is hardcoded to 0. Leading to missing reports when dealing with a directory since cfengine can not "produce" any
classes from the 0 level recursion of the directory....

We can change the recursion level to inf to fix this, even if the GM is called "file_from" its description explicitly says "Ensure that a file or directory is copied".

Even with this, we should add a check in the GM to be sure that if no classes are "produced", there will be an error message and not a missing report in the webapp and nothing in the agent logs.
