A dictionary of file extensions and associated module loaders.

## What is it
This is used by [Liftoff](http://github.com/tkellen/node-liftoff) to automatically require dependencies for configuration files, and by [rechoir](http://github.com/tkellen/node-rechoir) for registering module loaders.

## API

### extensions
Map file types to modules which provide a [require.extensions] loader.

```js
{
  '.babel.js': [
    {
      module: '@babel/register',
      register: function(hook) {
        // register on .js extension due to https://github.com/joyent/node/blob/v0.12.0/lib/module.js#L353
        // which only captures the final extension (.babel.js -> .js)
        hook({ extensions: '.js' });
      },
    },
    {
      module: 'babel-register',
      register: function(hook) {
        hook({ extensions: '.js' });
      },
    },
    {
      module: 'babel-core/register',
      register: function(hook) {
        hook({ extensions: '.js' });
      },
    },
    {
      module: 'babel/register',

      // which only captures the final extension (.babel.js -> .js)
      var esmLoader = hook(module);

### jsVariants
Same as above, but only include the extensions which are javascript variants.

## How to use it

Consumers should use the exported `extensions` or `jsVariants` object to determine which module should be loaded for a given extension. If a matching extension is found, consumers should do the following:

1. If the value is null, do nothing.

2. If the value is a string, try to require it.

3. If the value is an object, try to require the `module` property. If successful, the `register` property (a function) should be called with the module passed as the first argument.

4. If the value is an array, iterate over it, attempting step #2 or #3 until one of the attempts does not throw.
