What this PR does
For some reason Insight/Importer didn't allow to import hidden files (which includes files in hidden directories). This PR removes this restriction.
Testing this PR
Has to be tested on Windows. Linux and OSX don't show the hidden folders/files in the import dialog in first place, but Windows does if you set the Windows Explorer to do so.
