Mainly refactoring the address docs. This commit has the following changes: - Remove examples for discouraged use-cases (e.g. using anycast and multicast on the same address). - Reword to use configuration terms wherever possible. For example, instead of saying "point-to-point" (which is not a configuration term) say "anycast". References to things like "point-to-point" and "publish-subscribe" are still there since users are familiar with these terms. They're just used much less often. - Remove duplicate explanation of exclusive queues. - Remove duplicate explanation of auto-create and auto-delete elements. - Re-create graphics and include the master SVGs for potential updates later. - Give non-destructive queues its own chapter. - Add details about specifying routing type using a message property. - Update the styling on the user manual's cover page to look better. - Lots of re-wording for clarity's sake. - Re-order sub-sections for clarity's sake. - Break up the address model and the settings documentation. The settings documentation is large and deserves its own chapter. The original anchor link is still available with a link to the new chapter. In general the address-specific documentation should be much more clear, concise, and consistent now.

Wildcard Syntax
Apache ActiveMQ Artemis uses a specific syntax for representing wildcards in security settings, address settings and when creating consumers.
The syntax is similar to that used by AMQP.
An Apache ActiveMQ Artemis wildcard expression contains words delimited by the character
.
(full stop).
The special characters #
and *
also have special meaning and can
take the place of a word.
The character #
means "match any sequence of zero or more words".
The character *
means "match a single word".
So the wildcard news.europe.#
would match news.europe
,
news.europe.sport
, news.europe.politics
, and
news.europe.politics.regional
but would not match news.usa
,
news.usa.sport
or entertainment
.
The wildcard news.*
would match news.europe
, but not
news.europe.sport
.
The wildcard news.*.sport
would match news.europe.sport
and also
news.usa.sport
, but not news.europe.politics
.
Customizing the Syntax
It's possible to further configure the syntax of the wildcard addresses using the broker configuration.
For that, the <wildcard-addresses>
configuration tag is used.
<wildcard-addresses>
<routing-enabled>true</routing-enabled>
<delimiter>.</delimiter>
<any-words>#</any-words>
<single-word>*</single-word>
</wildcard-addresses>
The example above shows the default configuration.
