Per Template Ignore Checks

cfn-lint version: (cfn-lint --version) cfn-lint 0.22.3 Description of issue. On a given template it would be nice to either inline, or per file ignore certain checks.

Please provide as much information as possible:

• Feature request: Sometimes particular files we’d like to ignore certain linting violations, but not cross cut. Allow for per template ignores.

The Metadata configuration in a file will only ignore that rule for that template.

file test1.yaml

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: "2010-09-09"
Metadata:
  cfn-lint:
    config:
      ignore_checks:
        - E3001
Resources:
  ExampleResource:
    Type: AWS::Bad::Resource
    Properties: {}

file test2.yaml

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: "2010-09-09"
Resources:
  ExampleResource:
    Type: AWS::Bad::Resource
    Properties: {}

if you run

cfn-lint test1.yaml test2.yaml
E3001 Invalid or unsupported Type AWS::Bad::Resource for resource ExampleResource in us-east-1
test2.yaml:4:5
