feat(filename) Always use the first letter for hidden directories (#833)

Instead of shortening a path segment to just the dot, it is now always
using 2 characters.

E.g.

```
~/.config/nvim/lua/config/lualine.lua
```

is shortened to

```
~/.c/n/l/c/lualine.lua
```

This includes a rewrite of the shortening logic as it cannot be
expressed easily/readable using patterns. The current approach starts at
the beginning and replaces each segment by a shortened version and
keeping track of the overall length (basic book keeping on how many
characters were saved by the replacement).
