feat(cli): Enhance file exclusion capabilities with multiple patterns and .gitingestignore support

- Added the ability to specify multiple file exclusion patterns using the `-e` option.
- Introduced support for a `.gitingestignore` file to define files and directories to be excluded.
- Improved command line pattern parsing to handle space-separated patterns.
- Combined exclusion patterns from both command line arguments and the `.gitingestignore` file for comprehensive exclusion.
- Removed the unused import 'os' to satisfy pylint checks.
- Corrected docstring issues to comply with darglint requirements.
- Updated documentation with clear examples illustrating the new features.

These enhancements provide users with a more flexible and user-friendly way to exclude files and directories, either through command line options or by using a `.gitingestignore` file.
