·        Enhanced the Deploy and Run Task's exclude directory feature to
correctly handle child directory exclusion.

*Additional details:*

·        Both analysis and remediation checks are included

·        Some of the checks allow you to use the parameterized setting to
enable customization for compliance evaluation. Note that parameterization
and remediation actions require the creation of a custom site.

·        Improved few checks by adding the pending restart feature to them.
The pending restart feature works in the following ways:

·        The action results will show “Pending Restart” instead of “Fixed”
for those checks which requires OS reboot.

·        The check will show relevant for those endpoints until they are
rebooted.

·        Post reboot of the endpoint the action results will show as
“Fixed”, and the check will be compliant.
