METRON-1396: Fix .gitignore files to not ignore themselves
## Contributor Comments
The relevant files are already in git, it's a trivial fix to just add the
reinclusion. See https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore, under `Pattern Format`.
The files are in git already, so it's pretty benign, but I suspect
weirdness could occur, and this is more correct. And also it just bothered me.
