Get-Dba* Wildcard Support

[mattcargile]

Summarize Functionality

I am of the opinion that all the applicable Get-Dba* commands should support wildcards much like the greater core pwsh cmdlets like Get-Service or Get-Process. So Get-DbaDatabase -Database Name* or Get-DbaAgentJob -JobName Name*.

This is admittedly more hits a more interactive userbase. I've come to use dbatools more and more versus SSMS . So I have lots of aliases and such and so it would be handy. I know there is alot tab completion on many of the commands like -Database though it can lag a bit.

Is there a command that is similiar or close to what you are looking for?

Yes

Technical Details

Many of the cmdlets probably use -in so it would just be converting to a loop or the like and using -like.

First step is a list of "tuples" functionname-parametername, then for each start a small "poll" about it being useful or not, and then go ahead and implement them. If logic stays the same an utility function should ideally be created.
BTW, for the examples mentioned (db name and job name) I'm up for it.
