`path.Base` returns the last element of `PATH`.
If `PATH` is empty, `.` is returned.
**Note:** On Windows, `PATH` is converted to slash (`/`) separators.
```
{{ path.Base "a/news.html" }} → "news.html"
{{ path.Base "news.html" }} → "news.html"
{{ path.Base "a/b/c" }} → "c"
{{ path.Base "/x/y/z/" }} → "z"
```
