Don’t always add "defaultIgnorePatterns"

Issue details

browser-sync introduced a breaking change in v2.22.0: It added a list of defaultIgnorePatterns that are not only default, but always ignored.

We are often developing with symlinked packages (via npm link/bower link). We intentionally watch certain files in node_modules and bower_components to ease working across package boundaries. This broke in v2.22.0 since these files are now always ignored. There’s no way to disable these “default” ignore patterns—they are unconditionally merged with any ignore patterns defined by the user.

Please specify which version of Browsersync, node and npm you’re running
