Subject: [PATCH v2] Allow wildcard (%) in extension upgrade paths

From: Sandro Santilli <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2022 11:10:10 +0200

A wildcard character "%" will be accepted in the
"source" side of the upgrade script and be considered
usable to upgrade any version to the "target" side.

Using wildcards needs to be explicitly requested by
extensions via a "wildcard_upgrades" setting in their
control file.
