+/** Implements the wildcard search query. Supported wildcards are <code>*</code>,
which
+ * matches any character sequence (including the empty one), and <code>?</code>,
+ * which matches any single character. Note this query can be slow, as it
+ * needs to iterate over all terms. In order to prevent extremely slow
WildcardQueries,
+ * a Wildcard term must not start with one of the wildcards <code>*</code> or
+ * <code>?</code>.
