describe: teach describe negative pattern matches

Teach git-describe the `--exclude` option which will allow specifying
a glob pattern of tags to ignore. This can be combined with the
`--match` patterns to enable more flexibility in determining which tags
to consider.

For example, suppose you wish to find the first official release tag
that contains a certain commit. If we assume that official release tags
are of the form "v*" and pre-release candidates include "*rc*" in their
name, we can now find the first release tag that introduces the commit
abcdef:

  git describe --contains --match="v*" --exclude="*rc*" abcdef

Add documentation, tests, and completion for this change.
