A * or a ? in a wildcard pattern is allowed to match any character,
including newlines. When converting a wildcard pattern to a PCRE,
* and ? were converted to ., which by default does _not_ match over
newlines (/s is necessary).
There isn't a metacharacter that matches everything, so either we modify
the returned pattern to enable dot-matches-all (for instance, by
wrapping the returned expression in (?s:...)), or use a character class
that includes everything. Picking this last approach for simplicity.
