Description
In the CLI you can't do openfn collections get * because * is evaluated in the shell. You have to do \* and its error prone and annoying
Maybe we can accept . as an alias for *
But I don't think we should do openfn collections get monday. where the dot is used as a wildcard, like in a regex.
And that might be a bit confusing?

Research direction
Start with the CLI implementation for the collections get command and trace how it handles * as the fetch-all argument. Support . as an alias for *, while keeping the dot in names such as monday. from acting as a wildcard; verify both command forms and the existing escaped-star behavior.
