Hi!

String-based paths are already supported:

     1> khepri_path:from_string("/shoe/*/flipflop").
     [shoe,{if_name_matches,any,undefined},flipflop]

Most functions in the `khepri` module accept string-based paths. The 
`khepri_machine` functions don't however.

I have plan to greatly improve the syntax and make `khepri_machine` 
accept string-based paths too so the API is uniform.

That said, those paths are parsed at runtime. Would you find it 
convenient to have a parse_transform module so they are parsed at 
compile time?
