Hidden files aren't automatically ignored #1935

Description

The Lychee documentation states:

Additionally, lychee ignores hidden files by default. To traverse hidden directories and check hidden files use --hidden.

However, this is not the behaviour I notice when using the GitHub Action; our hidden files (files that begin with a .) are still checked for dead links. I had to manually exclude these paths with --exclude-path "(^|\/)\.".
