Allow adding per-package override rsync exclusions 

This allows using <PKG>_SRCDIR_OVERRIDE_RSYNC_EXCLUSIONS in local.mk to
skip copying parts of source trees unneeded for building. For example,
when developing WebKitGTK+, it's handy to skip copying all the tests and
other build directories, which are huge:

    WEBKITGTK_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR = /home/aperez/WebKit
    WEBKITGTK_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR_RSYNC_EXCLUSIONS = \
        --exclude JSTests --exclude ManualTests \
	--exclude PerformanceTests --exclude WebDriverTests \
	--exclude WebKitBuild --exclude WebKitLibraries \
	--exclude WebKit.xcworkspace --exclude Websites \
	--exclude Examples

This saves a good chunk of time when rsync is used for the first time to
copy the source tree over before building.

the root filesystem image in +output/images+ contains the updated

Source trees for big projects often contain hundreds or thousands of
files which are not needed for building, but will slow down the process
of copying the sources with _rsync_. Optionally, it is possible define
+<pkg>_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR_RSYNC_EXCLUSIONS+ to skip syncing certain files
from the source tree. For example, when working on the +webkitgtk+
package, the following will exclude the tests and in-tree builds from
a local WebKit source tree:
------------------
WEBKITGTK_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR = /home/bob/WebKit
WEBKITGTK_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR_RSYNC_EXCLUSIONS = \
--exclude JSTests --exclude ManualTests --exclude PerformanceTests \
--exclude WebDriverTests --exclude WebKitBuild --exclude WebKitLibraries \
--exclude WebKit.xcworkspace --exclude Websites --exclude Examples
------------------
