Add global only and except

What does this MR do?

This adds global and job only/except matching.

This still has some edge cases, but generally we execute logic: global:only & local:only & !global:except & !local:except.

This allows you to have two level workflow matching:

global:
  only:
    - master
    - tags
    - merge-requests

docs:
  only:
    changes: Dockerfile/

Instead of doing:

docs:
  only:
    refs:
    - master
    - tags
    - merge-requests
    changes: Dockerfile/

This also allows you to add more specific matching for some jobs:

global:
  only:
    - master
    - tags
    - merge-requests

docs:
  only:
    refs: merge-requests # run only on merge-requests, but global:only has to be always met
    changes: Dockerfile/
