Suggestion: glob-specific configs within the same folder

[dsent]

There are cases where I want to configure different rules for different glob patterns within the same folder.

Adding inline comments to each file is tedious as is running linter multiple times with different command-line arguments.

It'd be awesome to have something like

{
  "overrides": {
    "path/*.typeA.md": {
      "config": {
        "MD018": false,
        "MD022": false
      }
    },
    "path/*.typeB.md": {
      "config": {
        "MD041": false
      }
    },
  }
}

...or similar.

This is basically a duplicate of DavidAnson/markdownlint#666, though it may be better to implement something here without support from the library.

I think this is not a library-scope problem. CLI can identify what bucket a particular file belongs in, and pass the appropriate settings to a library, calling it multiple times.

If you don't pass the content of markdownlint-cli2.* files' to the library directly, parsing it as library calling arguments instead, I think it's better to handle this on the CLI's level.
