Adding an exclude item to either of the system-excludes or user-excludes config variable will not erase previously synced items which should now be excluded with the new rules.

To reproduce:

1. Do a 'repoman save-image '
2. Look at the saved image and find a file you now would like to exclude as a test.
3. Add this file/directory to the list of user-excludes
4. Do another 'repoman save-image '
5. Look at the saved image and the excluded file is still there.

Details:
This is because the '--delete-excluded' flag is not given to the rscyn command.
