Description

In this question was solved problem for reverse LIKE operation in SQL, for example if field name is "Peter Johnson", we could find it by such query:

select name from user where "Mr. Peter Johnson" like CONCAT('%', name, '%')

Is there any way to do such thing in tortoise?

Done should be a maintainer-confirmed scope for supporting reverse LIKE matching, with tests covering the intended behavior.
