path.Split splits PATH immediately following the final slash, separating it into a directory and a base component.

The returned values have the property that PATH = DIR+BASE. If there is no slash in PATH, it returns an empty directory and the base is set to PATH.

Note: On Windows, PATH is converted to slash (/) separators.

{{ $dirFile := path.Split "a/news.html" }} → $dirFile.Dir → "a/", $dirFile.File → "news.html"
{{ $dirFile := path.Split "news.html" }} → $dirFile.Dir → "", $dirFile.File → "news.html"
{{ $dirFile := path.Split "a/b/c" }} → $dirFile.Dir → "a/b/", $dirFile.File →  "c"
