Since 'ref-filter' only has an option to match path names add an
option for plain fnmatch pattern-matching.

This is to support the pattern matching options which are used in `git
tag -l` and `git branch -l` where we can match patterns like `git tag
-l foo*` which would match all tags which has a "foo*" pattern.

I find it much more difficult to grok the new logic due to
'*filter->name_patterns' having moved into the called function and its
negation inside the function returning 1 which is then negated (again)
upon return here. This sort of twisty logic places a higher cognitive
load on the reader. Retaining the original logic makes the code far
simpler to understand:

    if (*filter->name_patterns &&
        !filter_pattern_match(filter, refname))
        return 0;

although it's a bit less nicely encapsulated, so I dunno...
        if (filter->points_at.nr && !match_points_at(&filter->points_at, oid->hash, refname))
