Add label-based exemptions

Occasionally we don't want to back up production databases. The poster child example for this is the Raven Core IdP database where both the IdP and shib-side database state is a cache rather than something we need to persist.

Add an --instance-filter option which defaults to None which provides a string suitable for passing to the list method used to query SQL instances.

This can be be used to implement label-based exemption using, e.g.,

$ gcp-sql-backup --instance-filter "NOT settings.userLabels.skip_backup:true" [... remaining args]
