Allow wildcard aliases in --bridge-interface option
This is useful when using dnsmasq as DHCP server for a set of VMs
whose data is routed by the host instead of being bridged. In this
scenario:
- There is an unbounded set of TAP interfaces that have no IP address
at the host end.
- DHCP allocation is done from an IPv4 address range associated with a
dummy interface.
- We run dnsmasq with --interface dummy --interface tap*
--bind-dynamic, so that it listens on all the TAP interfaces, and
--bridge-interface=dummy,tap*, so that it will allocate IP addresses
via the TAP interfaces from the range associated with the dummy
interface.
