Protected tags API wildcards broken

Summary

After upgrading gitlab we noticed that the protected API endpoint is no longer working as intended.

Steps to reproduce

Create a protected tag on a repo and use the wildcards on the API endpoint.

Example Project

https://gitlab.com/tvlooy/foobar

What is the current bug behavior?

Using wildcards in the API returns 404's.

https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags
-> ok: lists 2 tags

https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/1.0.0
-> ok: returns 1 tag

https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/1.0.*
https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/*.0.0
https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/*
-> NOK: these return 404's instead of results

What is the expected correct behavior?

Using wildcards in the API should return tags.

https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/1.0.*
https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/*.0.0
https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/45339514/protected_tags/*

This used to work and is still a documented feature https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/protected_tags.html

Results of GitLab environment info

We noticed since upgrading from 15.10.1-ce.0 to 15.10.2-ce.0. We now run 15.10.3-ce.0 where the bug is still present.
