 *
 * Exclude Terms by ID from the get_the_category_list(); (WordPress core)
 * Ref: http://stackoverflow.com/a/34817401/1004312
 * I add a post to two categories with the ids (examples) 200 and 266 
 * but I only want 200 in the post_meta shortcode in Genesis
 * which uses the get_the_category_list(); (WordPress core) which has no filter
 * But that uses uses get_the_terms(); (WordPress core) which does have a filter
 * The problems this leads to is that if 266 is a main category for some other post, it won't show.
 *
 * This is not recommended, instead just assign posts to a single category and use tags
 *
