Description
The Path.getExtension API was added by JDK-8057113 and integrated in JDK 20. However, additional ideas have arisen to modify its API; see JDK-8297814. As this change is coming at the very end of JDK 20 development, it's better to remove the new method from JDK 20 and re-add it in JDK 21.
