Issue Type: Feature Request

Hi
When you have fairley large project with large number files and folder,
I think there sould be way to hide folder and files that I don;t work on them
to increase preformance and and reduce time looking for file

VS Code version: Code 1.53.2 (622cb03, 2021-02-11T11:48:04.245Z)
OS version: Windows_NT x64 6.1.7601

.gitignore?

Please look at the files.excludesetting.

See also #117845 for pointers to extensions that help update that setting. You might also want to support that proposal for an enhancement to make it a built-in feature. If you do, add 👍 to the issue (not to any subsequent comments on the issue, as your vote won't count there).
