Support ignoring revisions on blame

[pzelnip]

In Git 2.23 options were added to blame to allow ignoring revisions in blames: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-blame#Documentation/git-blame.txt---ignore-revltrevgt and https://git-scm.com/docs/git-blame#Documentation/git-blame.txt---ignore-revs-fileltfilegt

This is useful for when (as an example) one does a large bulk change to apply a new formatting scheme to a codebase as those commits aren't particularly useful in a blame.

Any chance support for this could be added to Gitlens? I'd especially like to see support for blame ignore files, like is described in this blog: https://www.moxio.com/blog/43/ignoring-bulk-change-commits-with-git-blame Perhaps adopting the common convention of looking for a file named .git-blame-ignore-revs and using it if it exists would be a nice default.

you can specify the ignore file for gitlens to use in blame as described in:
#413 (comment)

or, alternatively, just specify blame.ignorerevsfile=.git-blame-ignore-revs in your gitconfig.

Awesome, thanks!
