Add an '--ignore' flag or similar

OK, this has been solved by some recent changes -- see #5 and 4c6978c for details. Basically you can do an inverse regex match like this: reflex -R '^dir/' echo filename is {}. Reflex notices that nothing inside dir/ can possibly match this regex and skips over it, avoiding the FS issues from #6.

So in your example, you can do -R ^vendor/ (or just -R vendor/, which also works but is slightly less precise as it will also ignore things like foo/vendor or foovendor).

Thanks for the suggestion. This, #6, and #9 have overlapping requirements (although I note that, if it's for performance reasons or FS limitations, only whole directory matching meets your needs).

I think this is reasonable, but I'd like to give a bit more thought about how to balance these related requests.

Awesome, thanks @cespare.
