Merge #16374: test: Enable passing wildcard test names to test runner from root

e142ee03e7 doc: describe how to pass wildcard names to test runner (Jon Atack)
6a7a70b8cf test: enable passing wildcards with path to test runner (Jon Atack)

Pull request description:

  Currently, passing wildcard testname args to the test runner from outside the test/functional/ directory does not work, even though developers expect it to. See these recent IRC discussions for more background: http://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2019-07-10.html#l-262 (lines 262 to 323) and http://www.erisian.com.au/bitcoin-core-dev/log-2019-07-11.html#l-134.

  1. [BUGFIX] Enable passing wildcards with paths. Examples:
      - `test/functional/test_runner.py test/functional/wallet*`
      - `functional/test_runner.py functional/wallet*`
      - `test/functional/test_runner.py ./test/functional/tool* test/functional/mempool*`
      - A current limitation this PR does not change: 9 test files with arguments in their filename are not picked up by wildcard search.

  2. [Docs] Describe how to pass wildcard names (multiple and with paths) to the test runner in test/README.md.

test/functional/test_runner.py <testname1> <testname2> <testname3> ...
```
Wildcard test names can be passed, if the paths are coherent and the test runner
is called from a `bash` shell or similar that does the globbing. For example,
to run all the wallet tests:
```
test/functional/test_runner.py test/functional/wallet*
functional/test_runner.py functional/wallet* (called from the test/ directory)
test_runner.py wallet* (called from the test/functional/ directory)
```
but not
```
test/functional/test_runner.py wallet*
```
Combinations of wildcards can be passed:
```
test/functional/test_runner.py ./test/functional/tool* test/functional/mempool*
test_runner.py tool* mempool*
```
Run the regression test suite with:
