Get Path File Extension

/**
 * Returns the extension of the path, from the last occurrence of the `.`
 * (period) character to end of string in the last portion of the path. If there
 * is no `.` in the last portion of the path, or if there are no `.` characters
 * other than the first character of the basename of path, an empty string is
 * returned.
