persist-state: simple way to exclude keys from persistance

persist-state

Description

Right now to exclude some keys from being saved, you have to do sth like the following:

persistState(store, {
        storage: myStateStorage,
        source: () => store
            .pipe(
                map(value => {
                    const {entities, ids, ...toSave} = value;
                    return toSave;
                })
            )
    }
);

It would be nice if there was a simpler way to specify keys to exclude.

Proposed solution

A simple exclude config would be nice:

persistState(store, {
    storage: myStateStorage,
    exclude: ['entities', 'ids']
});

Alternatives considered

Some custom RxJS operator similar to pluck but taking multiple keys:

persistState(store, {
        storage: myStateStorage,
        source: () => store
            .pipe(
                excludeKeys(['entities', 'ids'])
            )
    }
);

PS: I could create a PR but might need some suggestions for the simplest way to achieve this.

Do you want to create a pull request?

Yes

On unrelated note: would be nice to have better source config documentation. Right now I had to take a look at the spec file to figure out how to use it.

It was like that in Akita, and I decided to give the consumer complete control.
