     * Checks whether the input string is a valid wildcard domain matching pattern.
     *
     * A domain matching pattern is essentially a domain name with a single, leading wildcard (*) label, and at least one other
     * label. The wildcard label is considered to match at least one label at or above (to the left of) its position in the string,
     * but will not match the trailing domain (everything to its right).
     *
     * The string must be dot-separated, and the whole pattern must follow the domain name syntax rules defined in RFC1034/1035.
     * Namely, the character type (ascii), total-length (253) and label-length (63) restrictions. This function only confirms
     * syntactic correctness. It does not check for the existence of the domain/subdomains.
     *
     * For example, the string '*.example.com' is a pattern deemed to match any direct subdomain of
     * example.com (such as test.example.com), any higher level subdomains (e.g. another.test.example.com) but will not match
     * the 'example.com' domain itself.
     *
     * @param string $pattern the string to check.
     * @return bool true if the input string is a valid domain wildcard matching pattern, false otherwise.
