Regular expressions are not the best way to match a hierarchical
pattern like dynamic log levels. And the separator for dynamic
log levels is period which is the regex wildcard character.
A better solution is to use filename matching 'globbing' so
that log levels match like file paths. For compatibility,
use colon to separate pattern match style arguments. For
example:
--log-level 'pmd.net.virtio.*:debug'
This also makes the documentation match what really happens
internally.
