Subject: [PATCH] feat(core): add wildcard module loading in .crproj (upstream
 #481)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Cherry-pick of mkaring/ConfuserEx#481 — allows using wildcards like
*.dll in module paths to batch-load modules from the base directory.

The Load method now accepts an optional baseDirRoot parameter to
resolve relative base directory paths. New internal helpers AddModule,
IsWildcard, and BatchLoadModules handle wildcard expansion using
Directory.GetFiles with TopDirectoryOnly search.
