+List of path segments allowed to have wildcard imports.

+#### Example
+
+```toml
+allowed-wildcard-imports = [ "utils", "common" ]

+1. This configuration has no effects if used with `warn_on_all_wildcard_imports = true`.
+2. Paths with any segment that containing the word 'prelude'
+are already allowed by default.
