scripts/documentation-file-ref-check: don't check perl/python scripts
Such scripts may have regular expressions, which would make the parser confusing. Also, they shouldn't hardcode filenames there, so skipping them is OK. While here, also don't check references on extensions used for file backup and patch rej/orig.
