The entries in the exemption list are processed by "grep -vEf ./.x-update-copyright" and therefore evaluated as an extended regular expression (ERE). Thus, e,g, a "bootstrap" entry would also match for "bootstrap.conf" which we may want to be updated. The current entries are unambiguous so far, but to avoid confusion when adding further entries in the future, turn them into proper EREs.
