Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am only use this addon for replacing ipfs content with local gateway (redirect) and I dont use the import and upload integration. so the right click menu item only clutters the menu (which I have pruned to my liking)

Describe the solution you'd like an option to disable right click menu items of addon.

Research direction
Look at the extension's options page to add a new toggle. The context menu items are likely created in a background script or content script. Search for 'contextMenus.create' in the codebase to find where the menu items are registered. Then modify the logic to conditionally create them based on the new option.
