Overview
To address the lack of support for pattern matching for methods names in ControlFlowPointcut as discussed in #27187, we have decided to introduce such support in ControlFlowPointcut analogous to the support already available in NameMatchMethodPointcut.
Specifically, we intend to introduce a protected method along the lines of NameMatchMethodPointcut#isMatch(String, String) which by default delegates to PatternMatchUtils.simpleMatch(String, String).
That will likely cover the most common use cases for pattern matching; however, users will still be able to extend ControlFlowPointcut and override isMatch(...) in order to support different styles of pattern matching such as regular expressions.
