[PATCH] Makefile: promote wildmatch to be the default fnmatch implementation

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:57:30
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

This makes git use wildmatch by default for all fnmatch() calls. Users
who want to use system fnmatch (or compat fnmatch) need to set
NO_WILDMATCH flag.

wildmatch is a drop-in fnmatch replacement with more features. Using
wildmatch gives us a consistent behavior across platforms. The
tentative plan is make it default with an opt-out for about 2 cycles,
then remove NO_WILDMATCH and compat/fnmatch.
