Wildcard filters

[jonathanong]

writing something like ncu -a '/^babel-.*$/' is weird to me. i should be able to just write ncu -a babel-*

I agree that wildcard expressions would be a nice addition.

I added support in the "wildcards" branch, but's going to have to wait till the next major version release since it is technically a breaking change. If others are interested in seeing this feature sooner rather than later, please post here.

Closing for cleanup purposes and adding the revive-me label. Feel free to re-open if you are interested in working on a pull request.

This simplified version was merged to the main code?

[raineorshine]

No, I shouldn't have closed it. In fact, since * is not a valid character in a package name, it shouldn't require a breaking change. Unfortunately the wildcard branch got permanently deleted so it needs to be recreated.

Fixed and published to v11.2.0
