I edit a file under svn.  I save and I commit it with vc-next-action.
Then I look at the directory with vc-dir.

I remember that it did not use to work like this.  I remember that
vc-dir was useful to me, and it is much less useful now.

I'm not asking for any history.

1) Show all the files that are in a dir by default, just as 'svn ls'
   does, no files hidden by default

2) Provide a command to unhide, that is, to undo all hiding done by
   vc-dir-hide-state
