Wildcard exclusion support via "~"

Problem/Motivation

It would be nice to be able to provide a wildcard but then exclude a few individual items from the split. Example:

webform.webform.*
~webform.webform.test

The example above would add all webforms to the split except for the one with id: test. Support for this exists currently in the Config ignore module, and the "~" character is used to achieve it.

Proposed resolution

Add wildcard exclusion support via the ~ character.

Here's how config_ignore does it (for reference):

https://cgit.drupalcode.org/config_ignore/tree/src/Plugin/ConfigFilter/I...

Remaining tasks

Patch, review.

User interface changes

Wildcard exclusion support via "~" in the "Additional configuration" box. Potentially description text under the box. Example.

API changes

None.

Data model changes

None.

  • Needs tests

    The change is currently missing an automated test that fails when run with the original code, and succeeds when the bug has been fixed.

  • Needs documentation

    A documentation change is requested elsewhere. For Drupal core (and possibly other projects), once the change has been committed, this status should be recorded in a change record node.

    Thanks, #6 worked for us when the line with ~ is placed first:

      - '~homebox.homebox.test'
  - 'homebox.homebox.*'

    Adding tags for tests and documentation.

    Is this feature still on the books? 🤔

    it could be....

    We would just have to sort the list like config ignore does so that it doesn't matter what order you put the strings in.

    The attached patch against 2.0.x:

    - adds a sort into the mix so that entry order of inclusions and exclusions is no longer important
    - adds documentation of how to exclude under the textareas where exclusions can be entered
    - updates some code comments to make it clear that we're working with exclusions as well as wildcards

    Tests are still needed here.
