Summary
~~~~~~~

Beginning with Curator v3, `--suffix` is interpreted as part of a regular
expression pattern. This means that if you specify `--suffix -prod`, it will
match indices or snapshots named, __na-prod__, __local-prod__,
__2015.03.05-prod__, or anything that ends with __-prod__. The <<prefix>> flag
exhibits similar behavior, but with the pattern matching the beginning of the
line instead.
