Sorry for the late reply.
I thought a bit about the implementation and thought it'd be better
to avoid artificially creating the OR-ed predicates, and rather store
the wanted file types in an array and check for that in pred.c.
I think this should be faster, too.

The attached implements it like that.
I've also added extensive tests for the new feature.

@James: did you get green lights regarding FSF Copyright assignment?
Otherwise, or if you, Young, feel that my re-implementation is too far
away from your original, I can also set myself as author (and change
the "Co-authored-by: ..." to "Inspired by a proposal of ..." in the
commit msg).

Happy testing & have a nice day,
Berny
