Auto merge of #48252 - Mark-Simulacrum:exclude-paths, r=alexcrichton

Fix not running some steps in CI

We'd previously assumed that these paths would be relative to the src
dir, and that for example our various CI scripts would, when calling
x.py, use `../x.py build ../src/tools/...` but this isn't the case --
they use `../x.py` without using the relevant source-relative path.

We eventually may want to make this (actually somewhat logical) change,
but this is not that time.
