Adds an `extra_ignore` option: .gitignore-syntax lines relative to the indexed root that take precedence over every ignore file. `!pattern` force-includes otherwise ignored paths (.env.local, logs, dotfiles repos ignoring `*`); plain lines exclude more. Closes the scan_inclusions request in dmtrKovalenko#719. - Lines feed zlob's `extra_ignore`, whose negations win over the project .gitignore/.ignore chain. The watcher reuses the walker's rules, so it stays consistent with no extra matching. The pure-Rust walker can't layer overrides and logs a warning instead. - When any `!` line is present, git status also reports ignored paths (dirs without recursion) so force-included files keep the `ignored` status and highlight. - Carried through rescans, restart_index and nvim directory changes. Bindings: nvim `extra_ignore`, FffCreateOptions v3 (newline-separated `extra_ignore`, struct 88 -> 96 bytes), node/bun `extraIgnore` (bun moves from v1 to v3 and now also passes followSymlinks), python `extra_ignore`, fff-mcp `--extra-ignore` (repeatable).

Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The previously identified issue that could disable default ignores has been addressed. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to Force-inclusion intentionally makes previously ignored files searchable, including potentially sensitive files. Existing scan-location and symlink controls remain separate. No unintended security-boundary bypass was established, but backend-dependent enforcement and incomplete lifecycle validation mean these rules should not be treated as a universal confidentiality control.

- Around line 256-263: Update the extra_ignore conversion in the options parsing
flow to distinguish a null pointer from a non-null C string containing invalid
UTF-8; return an error for invalid UTF-8 instead of defaulting to an empty rule
list, while preserving the empty-list behavior for null input.
Review comments at @crates/fff-core/src/file_picker.rs:
- Around line 1605-1653: Update mark_files_in_ignored_dirs so both paths that
assign IGNORED preserve existing git_status values: set IGNORED only when a
file’s status is None, including in the base_path.starts_with(dir) branch and
the nested-directory loop.

- fff-c: error on non-UTF-8 `extra_ignore` instead of silently dropping every rule. - zlob walker: skip lines with an interior NUL before calling `extra_ignore`, so one bad line can't discard the other rules or the non-git default ignores. - collect_files: apply ignored-dir marking before per-file statuses so explicit statuses win, matching update_git_statuses.
