auth: do not anchor the pattern given for expand

Currently the pattern of expand command is line anchored.  This is
different than in e.g. grep, and causes extra work to add '.*' prefix
and/or suffix in many use cases.

The new semantics now mean you might get more matches than you would
have gotten earlier.  However, the expand command is still totally
undocumented, so I think it is acceptable to change the functionality.
;)

This patch removes the anchoring.  So for earlier behavior the specified
pattern needs be in form of '^<pattern>$'.  The default pattern is also
changed from '.*' to '^', so there might be even a small speed
improvement. =)
