Description

Before entering a folder, the user would be able to press "p" in order to see a preview of the folder.

This preview would appear on the folder's tile itself instead of the folder name and size, and would contain a nested map of the folder itself. The user would not be able to select any of the rectangles within though - for that they would have to press "ENTER" as usual and enter it.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current tile rendering logic and key bindings in diskonaut. Understand how folder tiles display name and size, and explore how to replace that content with a nested map preview when 'p' is pressed. Look at the event loop to handle the 'p' key.
