Allow wildcards in FileValidators

[Martyn Gigg]

In Qt, it is possible to use wildcards in filters when opening file dialogs. The filters are not regular expressions but from what I can see it closely resembles pattern matching in a Unix shell.

For example

• * matches anything
• ? matches exactly one character
• [a-z] matches any lower-case letter and similarly [0-9] matches any digit between zero and nine inclusive

Unfortunately the documentation is a little vague so I test tthe above things to make sure they worked

Batch move uncompleted tickes to next iteration

Once this is implemented you should re-enable the filters for load Raw to be .raw|.RAW|.sav|.SAV|.s[0-9][0-9]|.S[0-9][0-9]

if the [0-9] does not work then .s?? or even .s* should be fine.

It may be worth making the filters case insentitive.

(In [2202]) Wildcards are now allowed in file extensions. Use a ? to match a single character, [0-9] to match a number, [a-z] to match any letter and * to match anything. Re #406

[Martyn Gigg]

(In [2203]) Reactivated the file extensions for raw files. They now use the new wildcard facility. Closes #406
