Add wildcard support to ResultQuery::findByPath()
Before this change, querying validation results required knowing the
exact path to a specific result node—including numeric indices for
array elements (e.g., `items.1.email`). This made it impractical to
locate the first failing result in dynamic collections where the
failing index is not known ahead of time.

Wildcard segments (`*`) allow matching any single path component, so
patterns like `items.*`, `*.email`, or `data.*.value` will traverse
the result tree and return the first node whose path matches. This is
particularly valuable when validating arrays of items with `each()`,
because consumers can now ask "give me the first failure under items"
without iterating manually.

The implementation replaces the previous flat `array_find` lookup with
a recursive depth-first traversal that, when a wildcard is present,
compares each node's full path against the pattern using segment-level
matching. Non-wildcard lookups continue to use exact array equality,
so there is no behavioral change for existing callers.
