   Thanks Xenia, and sorry for the slow reply.

   You were right. Manifest discovery matched the exact filename
   requirements.txt, so requirements-dev.txt, requirements-prod.txt and
   anything else in that family was skipped silently, with no warning that files
   had been passed over.

   Fixed in #3. Discovery now covers the requirements*.txt family and also the
   requirements/*.txt directory layout, since some projects split that way
   instead:

   manifest: requirements/base.txt   -> [pycryptodome]
   manifest: requirements-dev.txt    -> [cryptography]
   manifest: requirements-prod.txt   -> [pyjwt]
   

   While fixing this I found that pyproject.toml and Pipfile were listed as
   supported but were actually being run through the requirements.txt line
   parser, which produced dependencies named after TOML keys and missed the real
   packages entirely. Both have proper parsers now, so if you have projects using
   those, they will give real results rather than quietly empty ones.
