Operating System / Version

Windows 10

Describe the Bug

This is a regression of #1468 which was originally fixed in #1650. I have bisected the bug to reappear with Commit e01ca7d or #1799.

Original description:
Trying to reveal a file inside hidden folders while hidden items are not shown results in neotree opening up but not moving anywhere. No note, no error message what is happening and why, nothing. I find this very confusing, and also I think that if I want to reveal a file at that point I don't really care if it's in a hidden or non-hidden folder, I want to see it. Please enable reveal regardless hidden items are shown or not.

Screenshots, Traceback

No response

Steps to Reproduce

1. don't show hidden items
2. open a file inside a hidden folder
3. :Neotree reveal (or reveal_force_cwd)
4. neotree opens but "nothing happens"

Expected Behavior

Reveal item regardless if it's in a hidden or non-hidden folder.
