Feature Request: Exclude Contacts from Export

[rodrialto]

First of all, thank you for creating this tool!
In the latest version, I noticed that filtering the contacts whose messages will be exported is now possible, however, I wondered if adding an option to exclude specific contacts from the export process would also be possible.

Thank you in advance for your time and for considering this suggestion!

That is not supported at this time, but this does sound like a useful feature to include. A new CLI switch to denote the type of filter and a small change in here to allow both IN and NOT IN in the statement:

imessage-exporter/imessage-database/src/tables/messages/message.rs

	if let Some(chat_ids) = &context.selected_chat_ids {
	if !filters.is_empty() {
	filters.push_str(" AND ");
	}
	filters.push_str(&format!(
	" c.chat_id IN ({})",
	chat_ids
	.iter()
	.map(|x| x.to_string())
	.collect::<Vec<String>>()
	.join(", "),
	));
	}
