Add an 'ignore' (e.g. like `.gitignore` feature to selectively ignore certain filetypes / folders from transfer)

[JoeZiminski]

This would be very useful in case you often have specific filetypes files within datatype folders that you don't want to transfer.

Thank you @sumana-2705!! I'll make sure to submit my draft PR when I have something slightly more solid! :)

Hello everyone! Just drafted a pull request with my current ongoing implementation for this feature. As I mentioned on the PR, there are still some improvements pending. Will make sure it all works fine before opening the final pull request, including making sure that the Sonar quality gate passes. Thank you :)

@laredoo has a very nice implementation at #504, for now it is not clear whether we will implement the feature as described in this issue, and so it is on nice for now. However, if given user feedback this would be useful, we can reopen #504 and implement in the software.
