@thenamankumar your pr description strikes-through the search exclusion but the code is still present as seen here

We should use .sourcegraph/ignore like we had in Beatrix's pr.

Same it seems we rely on the vscode search exclusion which shouldn't happen based on the pr description

There are genuine test failures where files cannot be mentioned as seen in this screenshot which needs to be fixed before this work can be merged |

Re-implementing PR: https://github.com/sourcegraph/cody/pull/8037
This introduces the ability to exclude files from Cody's context based on the
files.exclude, search.exclude, and .gitignore / .sourcegraph/.ignore.cody/ignorefiles located in the codebase root directory settings in VS Code.The
ContextFiltersProvidernow utilizes these settings to determine if a file should be ignored. This is achieved by:minimatchas a dependency to perform pattern matching.excludePatternGetterto fetch the exclude patterns and workspace folder.This enhancement ensures that Cody respects the user's VS Code settings for excluding files, preventing irrelevant files from being included in the context.
Note: .sourcegraph/.ignore instead of .codyignore so that the same file can be used across sourcegraph products and not just codyTest plan
