Add nested file detection for Dependency Scanning

Igor Frenkel requested to merge fix-nested-search-for-matching-ds-files into master

What does this MR do?

This MR is a fix for !30784 (merged)

Note that exists rules support globbing but using fnmatch which doesn't really support regexes. So in order to test matching up to a depth of 2, the {Gemfile.lock,*/Gemfile.lock,*/*/Gemfile.lock} rule was the best matcher I could find. I did not use the **/Gemfile.lock glob because that would change the behaviour of Dependency Scanning on projects that formerly did not have a detection on matching files at depth >2 but all of a sudden start getting detections.
