Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing fnmatch and glob entry points, then compare the proposed behavior in python/cpython#6299 and the uploaded 0001-Curly-brace-expansion-in-glob.patch. Done means curly brace expansion is supported for fnmatch and glob, with the related unused-import cleanup from 0002-Remove-unused-import.patch addressed.
