Why --ignore-dot does not ignore .rgignore?

Why --ignore-dot switch ignores .ignore but not .rgignore? Although if .rgignore file presents in the parent dictionary it can be ignored with --ignore-parent.

It's usually good to provide a test case so that we're all on the same page. Here's one:

$ mkcd /tmp/rg-2197
$ touch a b c
$ echo a > .ignore
$ echo b > .rgignore
$ rg --files
c
$ rg --files --no-ignore-dot
c
a

So I suppose the question here is, "why is b still ignored?"

Good question. Looks like it might be a bug.

I created #2198.
