Getting ready for a release, wildcards

Hi Hal,
If you're sufficiently happy with my code change, then you can click "approve" and "merge" on https://gitlab.com/NTPsec/ntpsec/-/merge_requests/1264
I would rather not add knobs unless someone asks for this to be a knob.
Thanks,
-Matt

I'll be interested in other opinions.
Just because nobody else does it doesn't mean it's a bad idea. Somebody has
to go first.
If it's extra code on our end, think of all the code in OpenSSL that we don't
exercise if we don't allow wildcards.
I have running code. The default is to allow wildcards so nobody will get
surprised.
I can push later today. If you want to go the merge request route, somebody
will have to give me a lesson.
