Re: [PATCH] clean.c, ls-files.c: respect encapsulation of exclude_list_groups

Consumers of the dir.c traversal API should avoid assuming knowledge
of the internal implementation of exclude_list_groups.  Therefore
when adding items to an exclude list, it should be accessed via the
pointer returned from add_exclude_list(), rather than by referencing
a location within dir.exclude_list_groups[EXC_CMDL].

When a type "exclude_list" exists and used in the same function,
having a local variable of the same name but of a different type
becomes a bit awkward.

builtin/ls-files.c shares the same structure.  Does the file-scope
"exclude_args" variable need to be a file-scope static over there?
It seems that it is closely tied to the elements of the string list,
so it may make sense to:

    * remove the file-scope static "exclude_args";

    * rename "exclude_list" string list variable to "exclude_args";
      and

    * replace "--exclude_args" in the loop that iterates over
      exclude_list (now exclude_args) with "-(i+1)" or something,
      just like you do in "builtin/clean.c" below.
-	add_exclude_list(&dir, EXC_CMDL, "--exclude option");
+	el = add_exclude_list(&dir, EXC_CMDL, "--exclude option");
 	for (i = 0; i < exclude_list.nr; i++)
-		add_exclude(exclude_list.items[i].string, "", 0,
-			    &dir.exclude_list_group[EXC_CMDL].el[0], -(i+1));
+		add_exclude(exclude_list.items[i].string, "", 0, el, -(i+1));
We may want to use for_each_string_list_item() here and in the
corresponding loop in builtin/ls-files.c, but because we do need to
give the -(i + 1) label to each element, I think the code is OK
as-is.
