1. [minor] Option to use files for in|exclusion patterns …

   We only could include/exclude files from backup by passing them to the
   restic binary as an option inline in `restic_repos.command`.
   When the number of in/exclude patterns grows, executed command in cron file
   truncated at 999th symbol with error message "Error: command too long":
   
   https://serverfault.com/questions/546342/crontab-maximum-command-length/736010#736010
   
   This PR allows specifying include/exclude files with their contents in
   `defaults/main.yml`, then these files will be created in `tasks/install.yml`.
   Then you can reference these files in your `restic_repos.command` like this:
   
   restic --files-from {{ restic_config_path }}/includes \
     --exclude-file {{ restic_config_path }}/excludes backup
   
   It will make the command executed by cron daemon much shorter thus avoiding
   999 symbols problem.
