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.
