Hide all hidden files except `~neutrinote_shortcuts.txt` and `~neutrinote_settings_data.txt` #93

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. ~neutrinote_app_data.txt gets automatically written to, and I like to order notes by last edited, so that one gets effectively pinned to the top even though I don't want to see it. I'll never manually edit it, so it just gets in the way of notes I do want to see and edit, including hidden ones like ~neutrinote_shortcuts.txt and ~neutrinote_settings_data.txt

Describe the solution you'd like A way to hide specific files without hiding all ~ prefixed files, or a way to show specific hidden files even though by default they wouldn't be shown

Describe alternatives you've considered I thought about prepending a . to the files I want hidden, but then I think neutrinote would just create a new ~neutrinote_app_data.txt file.

Or, could allow the user to manually specify the filename for shortcuts and settings, so those files could be neutrinote_shortcuts.txt and neutrinote_settings_data.txt, and then you could still hide ~ files but be able to see those

Additional context Not sure what else to add, lmk if you want/need more info
