# Finds an existing file from a module and returns its path.
#
# The argument to this function should be a String as a `<MODULE NAME>/<FILE>`
# reference, which will search for `<FILE>` relative to a module's `files`
# directory. (For example, the reference `mysql/mysqltuner.pl` will search for the
# file `<MODULES DIRECTORY>/mysql/files/mysqltuner.pl`.)
#
# This function can also accept:
# 
# * An absolute String path, which will check for the existence of a file from anywhere on disk.
# * Multiple String arguments, which will return the path of the **first** file
#   found, skipping non existing files.
# * An array of string paths, which will return the path of the **first** file
#   found from the given paths in the array, skipping non existing files.
#
# The function returns `undef` if none of the given paths were found
#
# @since 4.8.0
