[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] [RFE] Add option to %files to ignore listed files (suggest: -i) (Issue #2555)

[Michal Domonkos]

After discussing this with the team, we agreed that the idea behind this (to exclude certain (sub)packages from the build)  is actually quite reasonable. It's just that the proposed way of abusing `%files` for this isn't right. We'd rather have a preamble item (i.e. alongside `Name:`, `Version:` and the likes) that controls this.

I've moved this to our backlog so that somebody can actually pick this up later and have a closer look at how it could be implemented.
