This commit adds support for specifying wildcard('*') anywhere in the
server names match pattern. This allow users to write more compressed
network policies and is inline with what cilium/cilium supports for FQDN
match patterns.
With this change users can now write allowed server names as:
- '**.cilium.io': Existing behavior which matches any number of
subdomain levels in the prefix. "test.cilium.io" and
"test.app.cilium.io" matches but "cilium.io" does not.
- '*.cilium.io': Existing behavior which matches all subdomains of
cilium.io on a single level. "test.cilium.io" matches but
"test.app.cilium.io" and "cilium.io" do not.
- 'sub*.cilium.io': Matches subdomains of cilium.io where the subdomain
component begins with "sub"(only one level). "sub.cilium.io" and
"subdomain.cilium.io" matches wile "www.cilium.io", "cilium.io" and
"test.subdomain.cilium.io" do not.
SNI match patterns are now implemented using regular expressions. The
required regex is derived and compiled once during xDS configuration
update.
If the match pattern doesn't contain any wildcard specifier the
implementation relies on explicit full string match.
