SG-44793 Strip common .tkdeploy exclusions now covered by global defaults

[julien-lang]

Problem

tk-desktop was shipping CI/dev-only files (tests/) to App Store installs. The .tkdeploy exclusion list also referenced .travis.yml, a CI service the project no longer uses.

Changes

tests and the common CI/dev entries are now covered by global defaults added to the App Store publish tooling. The .tkdeploy retains only the repo-specific entry (resources) and removes the now-redundant/stale entries.

Note: these changes take effect only once the corresponding upstream tooling change is merged.

Testing

Confirmed the retained resources entry is repo-specific and not covered by global defaults.

Pull request overview

This PR streamlines the repository-level .tkdeploy packaging exclusions by removing CI/dev-only entries that are intended to be handled by newly introduced global defaults in the App Store publish tooling, leaving only the repo-specific exclusion.

Changes:

• Removed .travis.yml and tests from .tkdeploy excludes as they are meant to be covered by global defaults.
• Kept the repo-specific resources exclusion.

Same as shotgunsoftware/tk-core#1130, why not entirely removing the .tkdeploy file?

Same as shotgunsoftware/tk-core#1130, why not entirely removing the .tkdeploy file?

@carlos-villavicencio-adsk the resources/ folder is not excluded by default intentionaly due to complex cases like in shotgunsoftware/tk-framework-desktopserver#366.
Therefore, we need to keep the file for now for this case.
