Description
Legacy lookups invoked KNSServiceLocator.getBusinessObjectDictionaryService().isLookupFieldTreatWildcardsAndOperatorsAsLiteral(businessObjectClass, fieldName) when generating criteria queries. We need to determine the correct way to perform the equivalent in KRAD (in LookupCriteriaGeneratorQBC), given there is no analogous mapping in the DataDictionary. The KRAD LookupInputField contains the flag which specifies how the field interprets wildcards and operators. Criteria fields are defined on LookupViews, so the most straightforward strategy seems to be to iterate through those definitions to obtain the LookupInputFields. Since this is called in a loop over all criteria fields, we should make sure to return a map of the settings for all fields in the lookup view to avoid repeatedly iterating over them.

So - we need to pass through a list of properties which should not be processed for wildcards to the lookup methods. This isn't information that the lookup service should be responsible for retrieving.
I would argue that the LookupService should be as independent of the view as possible, since there are use cases for calling these methods from non UI code.
Assigned to Jonathan. Jonathan this is the thing we talked about in the checkpoint the other day. Essentially, Aaron checked in a "naive" solution in the LookupCriteriaGeneratorQBC.doesLookupFieldTreatWildcardsAndOperatorsAsLiteral method. Note how in this method is going to fetch the view every single time it's called which will most certainly be inefficient.
