xen-pciback: support wild cards in slot specifications
Particularly for hiding sets of SR-IOV devices, specifying them all individually is rather cumbersome. Therefore, allow function and slot numbers to be replaced by a wildcard character ('*'). Unfortunately this gets complicated by the in-kernel sscanf() implementation not being really standard conformant - matching of plain text tails cannot be checked by the caller (a patch to overcome this will be sent shortly, and a follow-up patch for simplifying the code is planned to be sent when that fixed went upstream).
