Support ObjectName patterns in excludeObjectNameAttributes

[KestasG]

Working on local project encountered performance issues with bean scraping. While analyzing found out that there are lot of unused attributes being tested against rules and taking significant amount of time. It is impossible to list all objects in excludeObjectNameAttributes as there are thousands of them, so decided to add pattern support for it. This allowed to reduce scraping time from 3.9 sec to 1.9 sec.

@KestasG thanks for the PR!

Can you provide an example exporter YAML configuration showing your usage?
Can you implement an integration test?

I've started with

excludeObjectNameAttributes:
  "xxx.stream-consumers:*":
    - "RateUnit"
    - "MeanRate"
    - "FifteenMinuteRate"
    - "OneMinuteRate"
    - "FiveMinuteRate"
    - "DurationUnit"  
  "kafka.consumer:type=consumer-fetch-manager-metrics,client-id=*":
    - "fetch-size-max"
    - "records-consumed-total"
    - "fetch-rate"
    - "records-perd-request-avg"
    - "bytes-consumed-total"
    - "records-lead-min"
    - "fetch-latency-avg"
    - "bytes-consumed-rate"
    - "fetch-throttle-time-avg"
    - "fetch-latency-max"
    - "fetch-throttle-time-max"
    - "records-consumed-rate"
    - "fetch-total"    

and later realized that simpler definition works as well:

excludeObjectNameAttributes:
  "*:*":
    - "RateUnit"
    - "MeanRate"
    - "FifteenMinuteRate"
    - "OneMinuteRate"
    - "FiveMinuteRate"
    - "DurationUnit"
  "kafka.consumer:type=consumer-fetch-manager-metrics,client-id=*":
    - "fetch-size-max"
    - "records-consumed-total"
    - "fetch-rate"
    - "records-perd-request-avg"
    - "bytes-consumed-total"
    - "records-lead-min"
    - "fetch-latency-avg"
    - "bytes-consumed-rate"
    - "fetch-throttle-time-avg"
    - "fetch-latency-max"
    - "fetch-throttle-time-max"
    - "records-consumed-rate"
    - "fetch-total"    

Will try to get the test next week.

You should be able to base it on...

Added integration test. While writing a test realized that it makes little sense to keep old implementation, checking object names by exact match, so removed it.

Hello! I've stumbled on the same problem. What's the status of this? Can it be merged in near future?
