Allow users to hide/remove unwanted apps from Command Palette search results

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Add the ability for users to hide or exclude specific applications from appearing in Command Palette search results. This would allow users to customize their search experience by removing apps they don't use or want to see, reducing visual clutter and improving search relevance.

The feature could work by:

• Right-clicking on an app in Command Palette results to add it to an exclusion list
• A settings panel where users can manage hidden applications

Scenario when this would be used?

This would be particularly useful for users who have many installed applications but only regularly use a subset of them. For example:

• Hiding system utilities that are rarely needed in daily workflow
• Filtering out legacy software that's installed but unused

This reduces cognitive load when using Command Palette and helps users find their frequently used apps faster, improving overall productivity and workflow efficiency.
