Keeping the original filename extension keeps more than is should #887

Formidable exact version: 3.2.4
Environment (node, browser, native, OS): Node

What are you trying to achieve or the steps to reproduce?
When using keepExtensions option and the original filename includes multiple dots the entire original filename is kept instead of only the part from the last dot.
Eample:
The original filename is: one.two.txt
Then the name of the file saved on the server is: random.two.txt instead of the expected random.txt
I assume it has been done on purpose to assure correct handling of files like .tar.gz, nevertheless I think the default behavior should be as shown above. It would be nice to at least have an option to control how the original filename is parsed.
