Description

I have a website that has a blog section, and the blog has a lot of entries with a lot of external links. Running zola check takes several hours and makes it impossible to add to my CI.

Being able to exclude the blog directory from the links checker would be extremely useful for us!

Research direction
Investigate the `zola check` implementation, likely in `src/cmd/check.rs` or similar. Consider adding a ` exclude` or ` ignore` CLI option to skip directories. Review existing link checking logic to understand how links are validated. Check the issue comments for any additional requirements or suggestions from maintainers.
