Configure "exclude" for the clean command

Sometimes a user may have other files in their notebooks directory that are intentional. There isn't a good way for clean
to anticipate arbitrary files, so we'll need a way for users to specify files to exclude/ignore.
Potential implementation
Here is a potential interface that lets users specify globs:
Passing in ad hoc to a clean
command:
nbautoexport clean notebooks/ --exclude images/* --exclude README.md
Configuring in a way to be reusable:
nbautoexport configure notebooks/ -f script -b extension --clean-exclude images/* --clean-exclude README.md
{
"export_formats": ["script"],
"organize_by": "extension",
"clean": {
"exclude": [
"images/*",
"README.md"
]
}
}
Then for a file tree that looks like:
notebooks
├──0.1-ejm-data-exploration.ipynb
├── script
│ └── 0.1-ejm-data-exploration.py
│ └── 0.2-ejm-features-creation.py
└── html
└── 0.1-ejm-data-exploration.html
└── README.md
└── images
└── plot.jpg
notesbooks/script/0.2-ejm-features-creation.py
, 0.1-ejm-data-exploration.html/html/0.1-ejm-data-exploration.html
will be marked for deleting.
notebooks/README.md
and notebooks/images/plot.jpg
will be safe.
