LLD parser accepts too much in input section wildcard patterns

We ran across an instance of strange parser behavior in LLD; it apparently is willing to accept the following as an input section wildcard:
```
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.text*)) }
PROVIDE_HIDDEN(__code_end = .)
```
There is a missing parenthesis after `.text*`; there should be three, not two. But LLD doesn't issue a diagnostic; it silently considers the all of the linker script up until the next paren as part of the pattern.
This appears to be considerably more lenient than GNU LD's wildcard pattern:
