Feature request: Option to exclude pinned tabs from count

Hello,

Would it be possible to add a setting to exclude pinned tabs from the count?
Implementation-wise, it should be straightforward - wherever you're calling chrome.tabs.query({...}), add pinned: false to the query options when the setting is enabled. Chrome filters it server-side, so no client-side filtering needed.
Something like:
javascriptconst queryOptions = { ...existingOptions };
if (settings.excludePinned) {
queryOptions.pinned = false;
}
chrome.tabs.query(queryOptions, tabs => { ... });
Happy to help test if you put up a beta build.
Thanks for the extension!
