This is needed e.g. for the igor reader that I am currently cleaning up and preparing for here: https://github.com/rettigl/pynxtools-igor

Quick question: is the igor-reader then supposes to write to any or to none of the application definitions? We should maybe allow only one of these options with this wildcard notation and indicate that in the docs as well.

This wildcard notation is anyways supported by the data converter, see

pynxtools/src/pynxtools/dataconverter/convert.py

Line 154 in cf4b792

nxdl_name in data_reader.supported_nxdls or "*" in data_reader.supported_nxdls

The Igor reader is intended to read from Igor ibw or pxp files, and allow to write to any appdef, or just NXroot

Ok, makes sense. Feel free to merge.
