/*
 * Inspired by https://github.com/justmoon/node-extend/blob/master/index.js
 * All credit to the jQuery authors for perfecting this amazing utility.
 *
 * API difference with jQuery version:
 * - No optional boolean (true -> deep extend) first argument,
 *   use `extendFlat` for first-level only extend and
 *   use `extendDeep` for a deep extend.
 *
 * Other differences with jQuery version:
 * - Uses a modern (and faster) isPlainObject routine.
 * - Expected to work with object {} and array [] arguments only.
 * - Does not check for circular structure.
 *   FYI: jQuery only does a check across one level.
 *   Warning: this might result in infinite loops.
