Public bug reported:
When attempting to craft a command to query and/or restart all services
with name 'something-*-else', such as 'neutron-*-agent' to match
[neutron-l3-agent, neutron-openvswitch-agent, and neutron-dhcp-agent],
I've found that no services are returned from globs in the middle of the
string. The only supported glob seems to be a * at the end of the
service name. Also, single character globbing with ? is not honored (as
in the last example).
To provide an example, I expect each of these commands to return the
dbus.socket and dbus.service, but only 'systemctl status dbu*' shows the
proper return.
