[PATCH] Skip dot files in `notmuch new`

[James Vasile]

No known mail client or fetch tool stores mail in dot files, because
files that start with '.' are usually used to store metadata
(i.e. state or configuration) as opposed to subject-matter data.

Some mail fetch tools (including mbsync) and clients use dot files in
maildirs to store metadata.  Notmuch should not warn that it is
ignoring these files, since it *should* ignore them.  Indeed, it
should ignore all dot files.
