We now compile an re.Pattern object for the entire pattern. This is made more difficult by fnmatch not treating directory separators as special when evaluating wildcards (*, ?, etc), and so we arrange the path parts onto separate lines in a string, and ensure we don't set re.DOTALL.

Partial backport of #101398 (excludes support for ** wildcards).

We now compile a `re.Pattern` object for the entire pattern. This is made
more difficult by `fnmatch` not treating directory separators as special
when evaluating wildcards (`*`, `?`, etc), and so we arrange the path parts
onto separate *lines* in a string, and ensure we don't set `re.DOTALL`.
