 BIND 10 configurations can become large, larger than one screen. When
 working with "bindctl", the output often scrolls out of the screen and the
 user must use the scroll back function of the terminal (if available).

 This enhancement proposal is for a new bindctl command "config grep".
 "config grep" will filter the output based on a simple or regex pattern.

 Proposed format:

 config grep <path|all> simple-pattern

 a simple pattern is just a search term that will be matched

 config grep <path|all> (regex-patterm)

 if the search pattern is enclosed inside parentheses, the search-term is
 treated as a (Python) regular expression.

 This might be a "low hanging fruit" enhancement for the existing bindctl
