Ignore dotfiles in profile includedir
Editors and filesystems may create artifacts related to .conf files
which don't change the file suffix; these artifacts generally begin
with "." so that they don't appear in normal directory listings
(e.g. ".#filename" for emacs interlock files). Make sure to ignore
any such artifacts when processing a profile includedir directive.
