Ignoring positions doesn't work in recursion #8

Description

@schnaader

At the moment, you can set a list of ignore positions using the ' -i' parameter. However, when in recursion, positions are reset to 0 so a given position like 1234 can occur several times at different recursion levels which is unwanted behaviour - the user wants to ignore a certain stream and nothing more.

Proposal: To prevent this, the stream position output in verbose mode should output positions in the format xxxx_yyyy_zzzz... - every recursion adds an underscore to the position, so e.g. a stream starting at position 1234 that contains a stream starting at position 567 in it would lead to the position 1234_567. The ignore list parameter parsing and usage in the detection would have to be changed accordingly.
