Consider adding generated content to .gitignore

So maintainers can add/update them with --force, but they won't show up as modified files for random contributors:
modified: content/mooreslaw_regression.csv
modified: content/mooreslaw_regression.npz
modified: content/tutorial-x-ray-image-processing/xray_image.gif
content/video/ also shows up as untracked files, probably should be added fully to .gitignore?
In the longer term it might be nice to set up directories where inputs and generated outputs could live (e.g. data and _generated) and just ignore everything in those folders. However adding these to .gitignore would certainly be an improvement ๐ . In fact, it looks like the mooreslaw files shouldn't be tracked at all...
I've certainly seen arguments for keeping generated outputs around for notebooks that are supposed to run for a longer time, so wasn't sure which case these fall in to act on it.
