Option to ignore certain URLs by extension about quicklink HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm fully supportive of addressing this feature request via Luke's proposal in #31 (origins, filter). Let's tackle solving this through that implementation.

This would be solved by a fully configurable origins option, as mentioned in #31 (comment)

Another possibility could be to add a new filter option, since it's no longer just checking origins. This can apply function(s) or RegExp(s) to any URL. It's then prefetched if the function/RegExp passed.

When paired with origins[], the filter(s) would have to run after the hostname check.

I agree that adding the possibility of passing a predicate function in order to filter which links should be prefetched would provide lots of flexibility without adding much code to the library.

One detail that I'm thinking, though: some less careful library users may not notice their download links are being prefetched, too... some default filters may come useful for "drop-in" operation.

Fixed by 1ff3554. origins and ignores will be in the next release so filtering will be available shortly.
