/** Implements the wildcard search query */
/** Implements the wildcard search query. Supported wildcards are <code>*</code>, which
* matches any character sequence (including the empty one), and <code>?</code>,
* which matches any single character. Note this query can be slow, as it
* needs to iterate over all terms. In order to prevent extremely slow WildcardQueries,
* a Wildcard term must not start with one of the wildcards <code>*</code> or
* <code>?</code>.
