Description
It would be very nice to have wildcard support for the execution list action filter.
Something like:
st2 execution list --action my_job.* -j -n 1
At the moment it's only possible to specify a specific action. I want to build JSON output, that is useable for the Jenkins Job Monitor frontend. Without the wildcard I have to executed a lot of API calls every time the dashboard refreshes, which is every 5 seconds.

Research direction
Start with the execution list CLI and its action-filter handling, then trace how the filter is passed to execution queries. Done means st2 execution list --action my_job.* -j -n 1 returns executions for matching actions in one request or equivalent filtered query, with JSON output suitable for the dashboard.
