Research direction
Start at the Docker Scout CLI handling for the fs://. scan source and trace how SBOM directories and file paths are selected. Review how .dockerignore patterns and repeated --exclude options should be incorporated, then verify that matching paths are skipped while other paths remain scanned.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Docker Scout with fs://. should obey .dockerignore patterns when considering which SBOM directories and file paths to scan, and which to skip.
There should also be a command line flag like --exclude <pattern> [--exclude <pattern> [--exclude <pattern> ...]]] to supplement .dockerignore with additional patterns.
It's technically possible to workaround these gaps by through git and cp tricks, but A) computers exist to automate and B) many users are likely to fumble the manual steps involved. Please just do this as a built-in.
Most security and automation tools provide mechanisms to ignore file patterns.
