[LeetCode] Substring Matching Pattern

3407. Substring Matching Pattern

You are given a string s and a pattern string p, where p contains exactly one '*' character.

The '*' in p can be replaced with any sequence of zero or more characters.

Return true if p can be made a substring of s, and false otherwise.

A substring is a contiguous non-empty sequence of characters within a string.
