Additional options of files_to_sync ignored
For [this release](https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-scikit-build-core/pull-request/15), the `filters` were not propagated to the `rsync` command, see logs: https://dashboard.packit.dev/results/propose-downstream/2532.

I suspect this bug could be caused [in this place](https://github.com/packit/packit/blob/672eac32fd4f03f53ea5df760c2c48c6086feb7c/packit/sync.py#L177) (called from [here](https://github.com/packit/packit/blob/672eac32fd4f03f53ea5df760c2c48c6086feb7c/packit/api.py#L1006))  since only `src` and `dest` are defined in the new `SyncFilesItem` created there.
