Allow using wildcards in config include paths

Updates `Config::tryExpandPath()` to return a vector of expanded path matches instead of a single path wrapped in an optional, with an empty vector indicating no matches. `Config::resolveConfigIncludes()` iterates over all of these matches, while other instances of path expansion (such as finding the base config path) retain their existing behavior and only use the first match.
