Extract the options and callback from a function's arguments easily

## Usage

```javascript
var log = console.log.bind(console)
var extractOptsAndCallback = require('extract-opts')

// fs.readFile(filename, [options], callback)
function readFile(filename, opts, next) {
// Extract options and callback
var args = extractOptsAndCallback(opts, next)
opts = args[0]
next = args[1]

// Forward for simplicities sake
require('fs').readFile(filename, opts, next)
}

// Test it
readFile('package.json', log) // works with no options
readFile('package.json', null, log) // works with null options
readFile('package.json', { next: log }) // works with just options
```

### Customisation

Extract Options and Callback also supports a third argument.
You can use this third argument to customize the `completionCallbackNames` property that defaults to `['next']`.
This is useful if your completion callback has other names besides `next`.
Allowing you to do the following:

```javascript
var log = console.log.bind(console)
function extractOptsAndCallback(opts, next, config) {
if (config == null) config = {}
if (config.completionCallbackNames == null)
config.completionCallbackNames = ['next', 'complete', 'done']
return require('extract-opts')(opts, next, config)
}

// The readFile method as before

// Test it
readFile('package.json', { next: log }) // works the standard completion callback name
readFile('package.json', { complete: log }) // works with our custom completion callback name
readFile('package.json', { done: log }) // works with our custom completion callback name
```
