archive-tool create should have an option to exclude files #33

When creating an archive, it is currently not possible to exclude some parts of a large directory tree. archive-tool create should haven an option --exclude so that it will be possible to spell something like:

$ archive-tool create --exclude=/etc/bootsplash --exclude=/etc/udev archive-etc.tar /etc
