Description
In the Azure pipelines task lib it's possible to provide a base path for glob patterns using a relative path. The actions/glob doesn't feature this.
It looks like I could use process.chdir to influence the working folder prior to globbing, but it rather not.
Is me only alternatieve to do path magic myself to pretend my base path for relative globs?

Research direction
Start at the actions/glob entry point and compare its relative glob handling with the Azure Pipelines task's base-path behavior; avoid relying on process.chdir. Done means callers can provide a base path for relative glob patterns, with coverage for that behavior.
