If we don't follow my suggestion above, we still have this
has_extension. This is a reimplementation of ends_with, isn't it? We can
probably drop it and just use ends_with.

This calls for another patch if we just want to kill has_extension()
in favor of ends_with(). There are 12 call sites of it.

Yes. Some of those would want to become ends_with, and some would
actually want to become strip_suffix. I'm working up a series now.
