Git panel ability to enable folder view

[Angelk90]

As you can see from the images when there are many files that have been modified but I want to commit only a series of files that are in a specific folder I have to select all the files one by one.

With a folder view, I could select an entire folder to track, without having to select file by file.

See how vscode does it in the second image.

This also make it easier to temporarily ignore a folder and reduce screen clutter.

Some cases when I would do this are:

• when I'm making a quick unrelated patch while working on another larger feature without switching branches.
• when I have some temporary/test files that are needed for a series of patches, but not needed to be included in the tree.
• when I just have some files that I don't want to add to the .gitignore, but I also don't want to commit those files to the tree.

this would be so nice. I've been doing some game dev (rust + bevy, so no other editor), and dropped in some kenney prototype assets. but I'm only using a couple of them right now, so I don't want to add them all to git yet because they'll only get removed later. it gets a bit annoying trying to work around a flat git status so I can find the files I actually do want to stage. thankfully they're usually grouped together because of the path, and most changes are to files that git is already tracking rather than new ones, so I don't even have to look in that section.
