[MPOM-342] Configure some default excludes for apache-rat-plugin

[jira-importer]

Konrad Windszus opened MPOM-342 and commented

As the version 0.14 now also checks for license headers in .gitignore and .gitattributes files (compare with RAT-308) and these files seem to be considered not relevant (compare with https://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#faq-exceptions and apache/maven-resolver#193 (comment)) those should be globally ignored for all ASF projects.

This has already been done for some downstream projects like https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/792/files#diff-9c5fb3d1b7e3b0f54bc5c4182965c4fe1f9023d449017cece3005d3f90e8e4d8R578.
