show secrets.py when appropriate

[this is not based on user feedback, just something that occurred to me]
I wonder whether the folder screenshots should show the secrets.py file (probably based on certain libraries, like requests, being installed)
.. this sort of speaks to the question of whether this shows what is in the ZIP file or what is in the CIRCUITPY drive...
I think I had considered this at one point but didn't come up with a satisfactory way to know if it was required or not. Perhaps a list of "needs_secrets" libraries can be stored somewhere, but there are some libraries that could be optional. Like using the pyportal or magtag libraries but not for network things would not need a secrets.py file in order to work.
The original intent was to show the CIRCUITPY drive as it would look when running the project.
This is handled now ultimately with a list of libraries known to require settings.toml which gets added if any of these libraries are in use. https://github.com/circuitpython/CircuitPython_Library_Screenshot_Maker/blob/main/settings_required.py#L10
