Patch to change sort order of hidden files

Hi,

I wrote yesterday a small patch which adds an option that forces hidden files to
be shown last (regardless of sort order).

I think that this a better order, since a user is not that often looking for a
hidden file. It makes the users home directory look much nicer.

The thing that I find annoying with toggling the 'show hidden files' option, is
that you usually forget it on and then everything looks like a mess the next
time you use mc, until you make the effort to push a few buttons and turn it off.

I made the patch from snapshot code (don't know if that was a good idea).
