Description

The includes and excludes of the bannedDependencies rule support wildcards, but only for an entire section.

They should be enhanced to support regular expressions.

For instance instead of having

<includes>
  <include>my.company:abc-api</include>
  <include>my.company:def-api</include>
  <include>my.company:ghi-api</include>
  <include>my.company:jkl-api</include>
</includes>

one would specify

<includes>
  <include>my.company:.*-api</include>
</includes>

To be compatible, the wildcard '*' would be treated as regular expression '.*'
