[JENKINS-56771] Add Path filtering to triggers in multibranchPipelineJob branchSources

in a `multibranchPipelineJob`, we can currently ONLY select branches that we want to include and exclude in our triggers.

 

We have some use cases where we would ALSO need builds NOT triggered, when commits only include files under certain paths/folders in a repo.

 

This seems like it is supported already through the git-plugin's "polling ignores commits in certain paths" advanced option (see screenshot), so I was wondering if there are any plans to extend support for this to the `multibranchPipelineJob`'s `branchSources`.

 

Thanks,

Yorgos
