We wanted to use minica to issue some wildcard self-signed certificates on our Windows machine, but ran into the issue that Windows doesn't support a '*' character on it's filesystem.

This patch ensures that folders created with the char '*' are written out as 'wildcard'.

Not a go developer so unsure if this is the best approach :)

Should be _, not "wildcard" imho

Thanks so much for the patch! I had been meaning to get back to you on this with the feedback that "wildcard" didn't feel right, but I was stuck on proposing a better alternative. _ works great, thanks @tox2ik.
