ruleSet support like versions-maven-plugin #183

I noticed that the <dependencyExcludes> parameter of this plugin seems to suffer from the same problem as is in versions-maven-plugin: https://www.mojohaus.org/versions/versions-maven-plugin/faq.html#why-is-a-dependency-version-not-excluded-by-dependencyexcludes

That is, dependencyExcludes only looks at input versions, so it's not possible to ignore a certain "target" version. This can be a problem, e.g., if a new major version has been released of a library with a version like "2.3.4.RC1" or "2.3.4.ALPHA", which are not good update targets but nevertheless would increase the libyears number.

One solution would be to implement the <ruleSet> parameter similar to the one in versions-maven-plugin.
