Description

Hello! I'd like to be able to use wildcards in this way:

// Need to redact my_secret, my_other_secret, another_secret.

paths: ['*secret'],

It is unclear from the documentation if this is supported, or whether wildcards only pertain to whole keys and not parts of key words?

Research direction
Check the pino documentation for wildcard support in redaction paths. Look at the 'redact' option in the pino readme or official docs. Also search for any existing issues or PRs addressing wildcards. Based on typical glob behavior, wildcards likely match complete keys only; confirm and respond.
