Replacement for minimatch #52779

Description

@sgrishchenko

What is the problem this feature will solve?

It is great that now in Node 22 there is fs.glob. But it seems that also replacement for minimatch is required. Otherwise, I don't know how to use exclude function from fs.glob options, because it is a frequent scenario when I need to use some glob pattern to exclude files.

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

I propose to export some helper that matches path string and glob pattern (maybe from path module).

What alternatives have you considered?

The only alternative I see for now is use minimatch package (or package that similar to it).
