Description

This may only make sense when scanning whole mounts, but it would be nice to have a visual feedback no how much free space there is. It could start as something as simples as a special node/branch that accounts for what `df` would returnn on the given path. Like `diskonaut /foo/bar` would include a special colored "free space" with the size of `df /foo/bar`.

Research direction

Start from the `diskonaut /foo/bar` command path and trace how mount contents are scanned and represented in the terminal view. Compare the target path with `df /foo/bar`, then define how a distinct colored free-space node or branch would fit the existing visualization. Done means the view shows free space with the size reported for the given path.
