Hello

I'm wondering if it's possible to allow `tab-line-exclude-modes`
optionally also exclude derived modes.

e.g. i don't want to enable tab-line-mode in all magit buffers,
so instead having to do:
  (setopt tab-line-exclude-modes
          '(magit-mode
            magit-diff-mode
            ...
            ))

I can just do something like this:
  (setopt tab-line-exclude-derived-modes '(magit-mode))


In addition to this, also support exclude buffer names, as an simple
alternative to `display-buffer-alist` which already does this.

The most powerful customization would be using `buffer-match-p` with the
customization type `buffer-predicate` that supports a regular expression
to match a buffer name, `derived-mode` and `major-mode` combined with
`and`, `or` and `not`.  Maybe it would be possible even to reuse the
existing option `tab-line-exclude-modes` when it's a plain list
for backward compatibility.

Thanks for your ideas, this is what I have done, I've tested it and
works great:

But I'm wondering if we can rename `tab-line-exclude-modes` to something
like `tab-line-exclude-buffers` and let `tab-line-exclude-modes` as an
alias, since this is now more flexible and not limited to major modes.
