Respect .gitignore when compressing a folder #237

Description

@sarensw

When a folder being compressed contains a .gitignore, optionally leave out what it ignores — node_modules, build output, .DS_Store — so packaging a repository gives the archive you'd expect. None of the archivers compared does this.

It could be an option in the compression settings and in the Add to Archive… window, next to the one in #236.
