support for include filters

- Added a new option for `file` sources, which allows to specify a list
  of `include` and `exclude` filters
- Added a new option for `file` sources, which allows to disable the
  `--delete-excluded` behaviour.

+* `filters` (optional)
+  List of filters that should be passed to rsync. Filters are specified as
+  attribute sets with the attributes `type` and `pattern`. Supported filter
+  types are `include` and `exclude`. This allows for more advanced
+  configurations.
+
+* `deleteExcluded` (optional)
+  boolean that controls whether the excluded directories should be deleted
+  if they exist on the target. This is passed to the `--delete-excluded` option
+  of rsync. Defaults to `true`.
