Support --include/--exclude

[jimmywan]

Something I did a lot with s3cmd is to grab partial directory contents over a large tree by using the following:

s3cmd sync <src> <dst> --exclude '*' --include 'foo/bar/*/*/*.log'

Would be nice to have some way to do this. Seems like the only way to do this with s4cmd is to ls them all and try to copy them 1 by 1, but I'd have to manually compute the target path/folder for every one.

Another use case when running on macOS is s3cmd sync [....] --exclude "._*" which ignores all metadata files OSX creates on non-HFS drives.

I can't think of any workaround to ignore these on s4cmd.

@rprieto did this request move forward?

I implemented the possibility of (multiple) --exclude patterns for local src files in dsync: #159
Unfortunately pull requests don't seem to be processed by the maintainer :/
