Modified Files:
        src/lib/libedit: filecomplete.c

Log Message:
Only match "." and ".." if the filename is non-empty & starts with '.',
regardless of the state of MATCH_HIDDEN_FILES.  That's the way bash
actually works, and makes sense.

Also, while here, don't allow calling the completion function to
alter the "match_hidden_files" setting set by EL_MATCH_HIDDEN_FILES
(or not permanently, only for the current match process).

Also, have fn_complete() call fn_complete2() using MATCH_HIDDEN_FILES
if EL_MATCH_HIDDEN_FILES has been set.   This gives some purpose to
the global setting, which was otherwise doing nothing at all.

And make the default be to match hidden files (the way libedit used to
work) which seems likely to have been the intent.
