Detecting whether hidden files are active when running a plugin

[gzagatti]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have written a basic plugin that looks for directories and then switches to the selected one, similar to fzcd

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like the plugin to know whether hidden files are active or not. If so, then I would include hidden directories in my search.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Mapping two different keys to two variations of the plugin.

Additional context

My plugin is very simple. It can be found here.

I see you've already prepared it for accepting INCLUDE_HIDDEN. @jarun I think it would be simple enough to always set the variable when calling the function (and showing hidden files), currently we only do it on batch rename. Are we okay with that?

[N-R-K]

If we do decide to make it available to all plugins, I think it'd make sense to prefix it with NNN_. So $NNN_INCLUDE_HIDDEN , just in case it doesn't collide with other preexisting env var.

[gzagatti]

Having an environment variable like $NNN_INCLUDE_HIDDEN that toggles according to whether hidden files are visible or not in nnn would completely solve my issue.

@KlzXS yes, please add the support.
