Exclude some options from config file

[ericfrederich]

There may exist special options that are dangerous to put into a config file. For example --yes or --auto-confirm which should only be specified by CLI option not config file.
Would be nice to support an option to exclude. For example...

@click_config_file.configuration_option(excluded={"yes"})
@click.option("--out-dir", type=pathlib.Path, required=True)
@click.option("--yes", "-y", help="Auto confirmation without any prompts")
def my_command(out_dir, yes):
    if out_dir.exists() and any(out_dir.iterdir()):
        if not yes:
            click.confirm(f"{out_dir} is not empty; do you wish to remove it?", abort=True)
        else:
            click.secho(f"{out_dir} is not empty; removing because you specified --yes", fg="red", bold=True)
        shutil.rmtree(out_dir)

FYI, I'm maintaining (yet another) configuration file add-on for Click: click-extra.

It allows for exclusion of some options as you requested.
