For more legible display filter notations, consider adding a shorthand for
"contains" and "matches" operator.
E.g. "*=" or "?=" (made-up)
Turning
sip contains 12345 or sip matches "(?i)cldc"
into
sip*=12345 or sip?="(?i)cldc"
Reducing the alphabetic characters makes display filters shorter (fitting more
information in the confined space of the display filter field) and easier to
parse for the human eye.
Also, making those synonymous with the existing operators, their shouldn't be
side effects for existing users.
