Wildcard base and edge cases

Through enterprise policies:

Notes:

Currently, a wildcard port is serialized as an empty port into prefs. Changing the semantics would require migration.

Through extensions (format, note that port cannot be specified, but path must be specified):

Notes:

The omitted port maps to the default port (80 and 443), not the wildcard.

The port can be optionally specified, and can be specified as “\*”, which
then maps to the wildcard.

The only allowed path for http/https is “/\*”, and that maps to the empty
path, not a wildcard.
