Make the copy_or_link_directory function no longer skip hidden paths.
It's actually only hidden directories because of the S_ISDIR check
right above. Not that it matters much...
This function, used to copy .git/objects, currently skips all hidden
directories but not hidden files, which is an odd behaviour. The reason
for that could be unintentional:
This goes back to the very first version of clone.c in 8434c2f1af
(Build in clone - 2008-04-27). If you look at git-clone.sh back then,
which is the version before the C conversion, it does something like
this

    find objects -depth -print | cpio $cpio_quiet_flag -pumd$l "$GIT_DIR/"

and I'm pretty sure 'find' will not attempt to hide anything. So yes I
think this is just for skipping '.' and '..' and accidentally skips
more. From that view, it's actually a regresssion but nobody ever
bothers to hide anything in 'objects' directory to notice.
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
probably the intention was to skip '.'
and '..' only but it ended up accidentally skipping all directories
starting with '.'. Besides being more natural, the new behaviour is more
permissive to the user.

Also adjusted tests to reflect this change.
