      CI: skip all dot folders for now (!1068) · 796f2d09

      At the moment we assume that all files except in /.* belong to
a package. Now that .shared-patches was moved to device/.shared-patches
that does not work correctly anymore.

This method should really check to which package the files belong
(e.g. walk up directories until it finds an APKBUILD) instead of
assuming they are directly in the same directory as the APKBUILD.

For now just ignore **/.* (i.e. all files in dot folders),
to unblock the MR since it's a critical fix.

      All the downstream kernels reference ../../.shared-patches in their
symlinks. Now that we have moved device ports to device/testing/*,
those symlinks are no longer working.

Changing the path would require fixing all downstream packages *and*
a new pmbootstrap release. Overall it seems easier to move the
.shared-patches folder to device/.shared-patches.

Since it is only relevant for downstream kernel packages in device/
that might be a better place in general.
