New option "-E" supports exclusion of one or multiple checks

Added new option "-E" which will execute all tests except a list of specified checks separated by comma (i.e. check21,check31). Any invalid check name will be discarded. And if just one argument is passed and this is invalid, then Prowler will execute all checks.

To save space, the option will return a list of total checks excluding the list provided. Then, the functionality will overwrite CHECK_ID with the final list and the program will continue as if the user entered "-c" option and the final list of checks.
