Ignore milestones matching a pattern

[Ryan J Ollos]

The default milestone for my Trac instance is unspecified. I would like to exclude this milestone from the list of planned milestones, for obvious reasons. It seems like the most flexible way to do this would be to ignore milestones in an optional specified list or matching pattern. Ticket #467 may be requesting a similar feature.

For example, considering the example in the header of the plug-in,

[[PlannedMilestones(*, Recruiting)]]

would ignore all milestones matching Recruiting*.
