ci: documentation: exclude drivers/api from README

Add exclusion mechanism for driver categories that don't require
README.rst files. The drivers/api folder is now excluded from the
documentation check as it contains interface files rather than
driver implementations. Additional categories can be easily added
to the excluded_categories array in the future.
