Exclude lines or files from linting

exclude(lints, exclusions = settings$exclusions, linter_names = NULL, ...)

`lints`	that need to be filtered.
`exclusions`	manually specified exclusions
`linter_names`	character vector of names of the active linters, used for parsing inline exclusions.
`...`	additional arguments passed to `parse_exclusions()`

Exclusions can be specified in three different ways.

Single line in the source file. default: ⁠# nolint⁠, possibly followed by a listing of linters to exclude. If the listing is missing, all linters are excluded on that line. The default listing format is ⁠# nolint: linter_name, linter2_name.⁠. There may not be anything between the colon and the line exclusion tag and the listing must be terminated with a full stop (.) for the linter list to be respected.
Line range in the source file. default: ⁠# nolint start⁠, ⁠# nolint end⁠. ⁠# nolint start⁠ accepts linter lists in the same form as ⁠# nolint⁠.
Exclusions parameter, a list with named and/or unnamed entries. Outer elements have the following characteristics:
1. Unnamed elements specify filenames or directories.
2. Named elements are a vector or list of line numbers, with Inf indicating 'all lines'. The name gives a path relative to the config.
  1. Unnamed elements denote exclusion of all linters in the given path or directory.
  2. Named elements, where the name specifies a linter, denote exclusion for that linter. For convenience, a vector can be used in place of a list whenever it would not introduce ambiguity, e.g. a character vector of files to exclude or a vector of lines to exclude.
