Ryan Walsh updated DIGESTER-183:
--------------------------------
    Attachment: SimpleRegexMatcher_Trailing_asterisk.patch

this does a simple check if the next character in the regexPattern would have been a '*' given the basePattern is the same otherwise

> Match function kicks out if basePattern.length < regexPattern.length when regexPattern only has a single trailing *
> For example:
> basePattern:  20150926|A|ABC|10
> regexPattern: 20150926|A|ABC|10*
> This should match since the spec says * ' matches any sequence of none, one or more characters'
