Possible self-encryption of PyInstaller directory #42

With the recent addition/change to the encryption of the user's home directory, there may be a problem with self-encryption. Crypter now encrypts all directories, and all matching files, found inside the user's home directory. This includes AppData, which is where PyInstaller extracts all of its resources to. This is problematic as we may encrypt resources that we need. The list of encrypted files is also written out to this location.

Solution:

  1. Determine if this is indeed a problem, and if it is...
  2. Extend the excludes functionality so that we can exclude directories, as well as files, from encryption
  3. Add the encrypted files list to the list of files to exclude from encryption
