Description of problem:

Assuming a data directory with two files, "mydata1" and "mydata2.csv", when attempting to import files with the flat file importer of Teiid Designer, only "mydata2.csv" will be discovered and selectable in the import process. It is not possible to discover/select files without extensions in the flat file importer, since available file name filters are only ".csv", ".psv", ".ssv", ".tsv", ".txt", and ".". "" (no extension) is necessary. It is found in Teiid Designer, however, it is not an issue only concerning Teiid Designer, but a general issue, because a general file selection UI can not show files without extensions. There is no reason to consider a file without extensions as a non-text file.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

JBDS 5.0.0
Teiid Designer 7.7.x

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install tdesigner into jbds, and restart jbds
2. create teiid model project
3. right click, select "import", select "File Source (Flat) >> Source and View Model", and click "Next" to run wizard
4. click "New" in "Data File Source"
5. "Next"
6. select "Enter file URI", and click "Browse"
  
Actual results:

A file without extensions is not shown.

Expected results:

A file without extensions is shown.
