Zed still includes project directory in file search results after hiding root

[janko]

Reproduction steps

Hit cmd-p to trigger file search, and look at search results.

Current vs. Expected behavior

Prior to project_panel.hide_root setting being added, the directories of file results didn't include the project directory. Disabling that setting removed the root directory in the project panel, but it still remains in the search results.

In the screenshot below, my project root directory is called "core", so I would be great if core/* was excluded from the directory names.

Hey! I'd like to take this on

I think restarting Zed solves that, at least that's how the root dir disappeared from there for me after setting project_panel.hide_root to true.

Yeah, that also worked for me temporarily when project_panel.hide_root was added. But then it stopped working, even after restart.

You are right, after the second restart it's still appearing.
