[Feature] Allow hiding of backlinks in embeds #19

Current Behavior

Currently, when the Obsidian setting "Show backlinks at the bottom of notes" is enabled, sync embeds also show backlinks within the transclusion. This can get a bit crowded and distracting.

Requested Behavior

It would be great to support a setting within Sync Embeds to enable/disable backlinks at the bottom of sync embeds, which would have an independent state to the Obsidian setting.

Workarounds

It is possible to use the Obsidian command "Backlinks: Toggle backlinks in document" on a per-document basis to hide the backlinks from each embedding block, but the state is lost upon app restart and is tedious if you have multiple embeddings on a page.

It might be possible to write a simple CSS snippet to set display: none on backlinks within embeds. I think I'll try that before opening a PR.
