Proposal to add wildcards / channel names to hooker.register

[gaurav21r]

Wildcard Support

Rough API

Due to popular demand, it has been requested that we add wildcards to hooker.register() as follows:

hooker.register('a/*', function (data){

});

hooker.register('a/b/*', function (data){

});

hooker.trigger('a/b/c', data);
hooker.trigger('a/d/c', data);

Implementation guide

Long term vision

We would like to use an existing router framework to achieve this. Maybe pull out the routing from express?

Short term

The short terms solution is that for every trigger we run through our entire object of routes and fire those handlers which match our wildcard via regular expressions.

This is a HUGE performance problem as the number of keys increase, but shoudl do for now.
