Feature ignore file #2036

[megagon]

Please take a look at the implementation.
Let me know if that's ok - i will make tests for this. If need something to change - i will change.
After this i am going to add support to ignore files/suites/folders etc...

Tests passed locally.

@megagon Hi, thanks for this. As you can see in #2036, nobody replied to your question. We are spread pretty thin at the moment.

I'm not very enthusiastic about adding features at the moment, and we're not going to release until we get some browser coverage. IMO any changes before the rewrite should probably just be bug fixes. But others can weigh in...

cc @mochajs/mocha

@megagon We do have browser coverage now and have since released, so we can revisit this.

I have a few comments:

1. The default file should be .mochaignore
2. It should support a global mochaignore file installed at whatever npm get prefix is
3. It should support a per-user ~/.mochaignore
4. It should be based upon ignore as to work how users would expect

Thanks for the PR!

FWIW, I've discovered that you can actually accomplish exclusion, albeit cryptically and not as easily, using Glob with Mocha as-is: #1577 (comment)
