Description
I noticed that when versioning is enabled, all files and folders are subject to versioning. Including external storage locations.
It would come in handy if one could toggle between on and off for folders and external storages.
ie. I have an external storage which already creates versions itself I do not need another set of versions. This just eats the space of my nextcloud data location.

Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. First trace how versioning is applied to external storage and folders, then define whether both scopes can be excluded independently. Done means the selected external storages or folders no longer create redundant versions while versioning remains active elsewhere, with coverage for the chosen behavior.
