Add an option to show/hide hidden folders in the file tree

Feature Request
Now that the file tree/sidebar has returned, it would be very useful to have an option to show or hide hidden folders (dot folders) such as:
.git.vscode.idea.nextnode_modules
Many projects contain a large number of generated or tooling-related directories that make the sidebar noisy and harder to navigate.
Suggested behavior:
- Add a setting or toggle for showing hidden folders/files
- Allow users to collapse or completely hide specific folders from the sidebar
- Similar to VSCode explorer exclude behavior
This would make navigating large repositories much cleaner and improve usability significantly.
