Reinstate * wildcards
Reinstate * wildcards as they are safe to use, but do not allow any other special characters such as ? or []. Notably, ? would overlap with patterns, and [] might overlap with future pattern extensions (alternative bracketing style), it's also hard to explain. Closes: #953531 LP: #1872200
