There is no need to exclude anything that wouldn't be
included based on includes.  So if you instantiate a
DirectoryScanner and set its includes to {"*"} it will
find every file and directory that lives immediately
below the specified basedir.  If you intend to use
DirectoryScanner from code, there is really no need to
use the selector, as you retrieve files and
directories with separate API calls against
DirectoryScanner; if you don't want directories, just
don't retrieve them.
