Can this functionality be implemented utilising API?
No

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Binary executables are currently shown in the tree, alongside normal files; however they are unlikely to be useful.
They cannot be hidden with a filename pattern, since they don't have a file extension or other common pattern.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to hide binary files, or sort them below other files.
Ideally binary+executable files (such as ELFs) are distinct from other file types such as images.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Filtering with a nvim-tree.filters or nvim-tree.filters.custom
