--include etc. now work on command-line args more consistently
--include and --exclude apply only to non-directories and
--exclude-dir applies only to directories. "-" (standard input)
is never excluded, since it is not a file name.

* NEWS: Document this.
* src/main.c (main): Implement this.
* tests/include-exclude: Test for it.
