…35669) The exclude_files option can be used for excluding directories, too, if recursive is set to true. This improves the documentation and reference configuration for Auditbeat. I've also added a working example of a folder exclusion for Windows.

What does this PR do?
The exclude_files option can be used for excluding directories, too, if recursive is set to true. Also (after spending hours on it) I've added a working example of a folder exclusion for Windows.
Why is it important?
It seems not documented elsewhere ;-)
