Cannot Install Extension Due To Underscore In _config.yml File

[stoic-llama]

Was trying to install the extension but met error below. So I renamed the _config.yml file and was able to successfully install the extension afterwards. Is this the recommended approach? If yes, I can submit a PR to master to rename the _config.yml file to config.yml file so future non-tech savvy users can avoid this issue. Kindly advise, thanks!!

Error

Cannot load extension with file or directory name _config.yml. Filenames starting with "_" are reserved for use by the system.
Could not load manifest.

Note: the Chrome Version used on the computer was: Version 84.0.4147.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Workaround

Renamed _config.yml file to config.yml and the extension installed successfully on Chrome.
