Add support for a .hidefiles file

[guiraldelli]

It would be very interesting if the user could create a .hidefiles file with regular expressions or filenames (such as a .gitignore file) that would contain all the patterns to be hidden.

Nice idea. It would also be cool if we can optionally place the file inside the .git/info/ dir so it doesn't get in the way.

In the most common Linux file managers (nautilus, nemo, thunar, .etc) and some text editors like Kate a .hidden file is used to list files and directories that should be hidden, it would be nice if you used .hidden as I and many other Linux users already use .hidden to hide files and folders.
