Added ./u entries in .gitignore

This adds two entries in the .gitignore file:

    ./u
    ./u/*

for ignoring such a subdirectory. The gentle user is now able to put
her/his utility scripts in there.

For example, one could put an astyle helper (callastyle.sh) in there:

    #!/bin/bash
    astyle --options=./etc/astyle

as typing the astyle call by hand can be annoying.
