and then some more time to make a decision what to enter and
finally even more time to enter the right value (issue #2257).

* Enhanced default AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH=( /media /run /mnt /tmp )
to automatically exclude temporarily mounted things (e.g. USB devices)
because mountpoints for temporarily mounted things are usually
sub-directories below /media /run (like /run/media) /mnt
and /tmp (issue #2239).

#### Details (mostly in chronological order - newest topmost):

* Enhanced default AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH=( /media /run /mnt /tmp )
plus explanatory comment in default.conf how AUTOEXCLUDE_PATH works
(issues #2239 #2261).

* Use is_true() for AUTOEXCLUDE_MULTIPATH and
cleanup of the get_partition_number function
that now errors out with BugError in cases that are
likely a bug in ReaR (issues #2245 #2260).

* Do not abort in case of invalid user input but retry if possible.
When input values can be (syntactically) validated there is now
a retry loop until the user provided valid input (or intentionally aborts)
