bug#5237: 23.1; file-expand-wildcards infinite recursion on tramp ipv6 addr

[Kevin Ryde <user42@zip.com.au>]

Calling file-expand-wildcards on a tramp filename with an ipv6 address
goes into an infinite recursion.  Eg.

    M-: (file-expand-wildcards "/scp:[::1]:/etc/passwd")

    => Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size

You probably need ssh setup for ipv6 access to localhost to see this.

I expect file-expand-wildcards shouldn't look at the remote identifier
part when considering whether there's wildcards left to expand.  And/or
when doing "updir" with file-name-nondirectory + file-name-directory it
should watch out for the result being the same as the input pattern,
meaning the root directory has been reached.
