dir.c: use a single struct exclude_list per source of excludes
Previously each exclude_list could potentially contain patterns from multiple sources. For example dir->exclude_list[EXC_FILE] would typically contain patterns from .git/info/exclude and core.excludesfile, and dir->exclude_list[EXC_DIRS] could contain patterns from multiple per-directory .gitignore files during directory traversal (i.e. when dir->exclude_stack was more than one item deep). We split these composite exclude_lists up into three groups of exclude_lists (EXC_CMDL / EXC_DIRS / EXC_FILE as before), so that each exclude_list now contains patterns from a single source. This will allow us to cleanly track the origin of each pattern simply by adding a src field to struct exclude_list, rather than to struct exclude, which would make memory management of the source string tricky in the EXC_DIRS case where its contents are dynamically generated. Similarly, by moving the filebuf member from struct exclude_stack to struct exclude_list, it allows us to track and subsequently free memory buffers allocated during the parsing of all exclude files, rather than only tracking buffers allocated for files in the EXC_DIRS group.
