Title: make .htaccess (a bit) less restrictive

The rule that made .htaccess restrict access to files (.log, .bak,
.sh, ...) was missing an escape sequence on its dot.

As a result, in addition filtering problematic files, it also filtered
some very valid urls. For example:

mysite.com/blog <- satisfies /.log$/ and gets filtered
mysite.com/hit-refresh <- satisfies /.sh$/ and gets filtered

This change modifies .htacces so the dot is interpreted as a literal dot
character, avoiding those issues.
