Set status.showUntrackedFiles to "no"

Each time the yadm repository is initialized or cloned, set `status.showUntrackedFiles` to "no". This prevents untracked files and directories from showing up in status commands. This seems to be the most sensible default, because usually there will be MANY untracked files in a user's $HOME directory.
