[Feature Request] Add ability to filter videos files only #19

The renamer works great but we end up with lots of extra files like ".txt", ".nfo" etc. in the newly created folder.

It would be nice if we could just move the video files, without the additional garbage.

FileBot do this in their UI, not sure what the command used it.

unfortunately, there isn't a good way to implement this. For moving (the primary purpose of this plugin), filtering out text and .nfo files would violate the torrent integrity, making it error out. and as soon as a recheck was preformed on the torrent, the missing files would be re-downloaded anyway.

Really this would be useful only for the copy and linking file modes. I may look into adding a file filter advanced option that's only active on non-move modes the next time I do some enhancements.
