Exclude from api but include in the sensor

[Salvora]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to see who logged in from my local network but I want to exclude these from the api calls.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add a seperate exclude option to api part like this

  api:
    provider: 'ipapi'
    exclude:
      - "local ip"
      - "other ip"

I am not sure how this works but it will be helpful to reduce unnecessary api calls.

Without knowing much about this integration it seems like a good idea. I first thought that exclude actually was meant to deny authentication but maybe it only has to do with the logging as you seem to think.

Maybe it would be clearer to have two attributes such as:

Name suggestions to exclude from logging

log_exclude, exclude_log, filter_ip

Name suggestions to deny/block authentication

deny_ip, block_ip, deny_auth, block_auth
