Description

This patch contains a new feature called ‘Advance Mapping’ which can be configured to
include-exclude data like products and features. This feature can be utilized when merging data and
excluding the unwanted data.

Usage:
The configuration is the same as a normal mapping but prefixes should be added to indicate if it’s
to be included or excluded. Adding ‘+’ or no prefixes on a name means it is included, adding ‘-’ on
a name means it is excluded. Entries are evaluated from bottom-up.

The mapping type should also be set as 'ADVMAP'.

Example:

 	ADVMAP: Combined_Product
   	+*;licsrv
   	-server01_legacy;licsrv

This means all products that match(es) ‘*;licsrv’ will be included and 'server01_legacy;licsrv' will
be excluded in the mapping.

NOTE:

- Prefixes mentioned cannot be used for regular MAP setup.
- Advance Mapping is not recommended for rename functions.
- While ADVMAP enables a more advanced method for mapping, it is also slower. It can be significant
for huge data sets.
