Fixes #629 by using the ignore crate for directory recursing

Summary of Changes

Hello @thejcannon, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request resolves a reported issue where hk was not respecting .gitignore rules during directory traversal. By integrating the ignore crate, the file scanning mechanism now accurately excludes ignored files and directories, including .git folders, from processing. This enhancement ensures more predictable and correct file operations within the hk tool.

Highlights

Dependency Update: The ignore crate has been added to Cargo.toml and Cargo.lock to provide robust .gitignore parsing and file traversal capabilities.
Refactored File Traversal: The all_files_in_dir function in src/hook.rs has been refactored to use ignore::WalkBuilder. This change ensures that directory recursion correctly respects .gitignore rules and explicitly skips .git directories, while still allowing other dotfiles.
New Integration Tests: A new test file, test/dir_traversal.bats, has been added. It includes tests to verify that hk check correctly ignores files and directories specified in .gitignore and that the .git directory is always excluded from processing.

Changelog

Cargo.lock
- Added ignore crate to dependencies.
Cargo.toml
- Added ignore = "0.4" dependency.
src/hook.rs
- Replaced custom directory traversal logic in all_files_in_dir with ignore::WalkBuilder.
- Configured WalkBuilder to allow hidden files but explicitly skip .git directories.
test/dir_traversal.bats
- Added new BATS test file.
- Included tests to verify that hk check correctly ignores files and directories listed in .gitignore.
- Added a test to confirm that the .git directory is always ignored.

Activity

Addressed issue reported in directory traversal should ignore `.gitignore`'d files #629.

Code Review

This pull request correctly switches to the ignore crate for directory traversal to respect .gitignore files, addressing the issue described. The new tests adequately verify this change. I've provided a couple of suggestions for src/hook.rs to simplify the code, improve error handling, and enhance performance.

I think this is a good default, but it needs to be configurable
