[PATCH v2] erofs-utils: mkfs: add --exclude-path-from and --exclude-regex-from

[Nithurshen]

Currently, users who want to exclude multiple specific files or paths
must pass them one-by-one using --exclude-path or --exclude-regex via
the command line. This becomes cumbersome for complex build systems
with dozens of exclusions.

This patch introduces --exclude-path-from=FILE and
--exclude-regex-from=FILE flags to mkfs.erofs. Similar to standard
archiving tools, they allow users to supply a text file containing a
list of literal paths or regular expressions to exclude, which are
read line-by-line and applied to the EROFS build process.
