Description
Consider this object:
```
{
"foo": {
"": {
"bar": {
"baz": 123
}
}
}
```
The following path returns `[123]`, as expected:
```
jmespath.search('foo."".bar.*', test)
[123]
```
However, when I put a wildcard in place of the key which is an empty string, I don't get a result:
```
jmespath.search('foo.*.bar.*', test) is None
True
```
This is strange, because if I don't specify the second wildcard, the first one works and I do get a result:
```
jmespath.search('foo.*.bar', test)
[{'baz': 123}]
```
I've asked on gitter and have been advised this might be a bug and not my misunderstanding of the JMESPath syntax.
I'm on JMESPath version 0.9.4, installed by pip on Python 3.
