Add option to rename without touching file extension.

[oltodosel]

So that these:
brename -i -p ".+(S\d\dE\d\d).+mkv" -r '$1.mkv'
brename -i -p ".+(S\d\dE\d\d).+mp4" -r '$1.mp4'
Could become this:
brename --dont-touch-f-extensions -i -p ".+(S\d\dE\d\d).+" -r '$1'

let me try

brename -i -p ".+(S\d\dE\d\d).+([^\.]+)$" -r '$1.$2'

[shenwei356]

i'll add this option

I just thought it would've been good having such option, since mostly extensions aren't needed to be touched.
Your regexp isn't good.

brename -d -i -p ".+(S\d\dE\d\d).+\.(.+)$" -r '$1.$2'

New option added:

  -e, --ignore-ext    ignore file extension. i.e., replacement does not change file extension

Please help to test it.
