In an example CL with both "example.py" and "example.txt", the Pylint analyzer produced twice as many comments as it should have.
CL: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/playground/gerrit-tricium/+/1097599
By comparing patchsets 46, 47, 48, we can see that it produces the extra comments when there's another example.* file in the CL.
I think that this happens because Python ignores extensions when passed files and so `pylint example.py example.txt` resulted in running pylint on the "example" module twice.
