Description

### Describe the issue

Currently, we run fluent bit in production without the fluent operator.

I want to exclude specific namespaces from being red by the tail input.

So, currently, I have a long list of excluded keywords (namespaces) like so:

```
[INPUT]
name tail
path /var/log/containers/*.log
exclude_path *path_a*,*path_b*,*path_c*, ...
tag app.*
...
```

This works, but I'm not too fond of this solution since it requires manual maintenance.

Is there a cleaner way to do this by using the fluent operator?
