Description

### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to use the auto-upload feature and sometimes configure some custom folders. The problem here is that user potentially have a large number of folders containing a single album cover. In my case this means that opening the auto-upload page in the app takes 10+ seconds and sometimes even crashing and then shows 3000+ folders with a single image. I can't find the folders i actually want to manage unless i scroll for minutes.

### Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice to have a setting to exclude a path from the auto-upload discovery where one could pick to exclude everything in internal/music from auto-upload.

### Describe alternatives you've considered
I do not know a way how to hide these folders except manually select "hide folder" for thousands of folders.
