Request for support for external API key in a dotenv file

[mofosyne]

I would like the plugin to read a .env file which may include something like

export OPENAI_API_KEY=

So i can easily exclude the file when syncing to a git repo.

Hi, @mofosyne,

I have just realized that Obsidian-git users need this funtionality. I will consider adding it, but it may take some time because I am not familiar with this in detail.

If you want to make direct modifications, PRs are always welcome ! Thanks :)
