Fix documentation of -fprofile-exclude-files
The wording of the description of -fprofile-exclude-files is easy to misunderstand. One can be led to believe a file is excluded only if it matches all of the patterns, not just one. This patch tries to clarify the function. It also adjusts the wording of -fprofile-filter-files accordingly. gcc/ PR gcov-profile/96285 * common.opt, doc/invoke.texi: Clarify wording of -fprofile-exclude-files and adjust -fprofile-filter-files to match.
