Fix creation of parent empty directories when parent is excluded by s…

…ync_list (#2245)

* When a parental path is to be excluded, and it is an exact match to be excluded, but further 'included' by a wildcard path match, the parental path exclude needs to take precedence, so that empty local directories are not created when they are mean to be excluded
