Although I use PHP, this should apply equally to any CGI language like Perl, Ruby, or Python

How do I strip file extensions from URLs with H2O?
I'm trying to use H2O to serve a multi-file PHP website without routing—just having a separate PHP file for every page. The relevant part of my H2O config currently looks like this:
```yaml
paths:
"/":
file.dir: /home/mysite/www/site/
file.index: [ "index.php" ]
file.custom-handler:
extension: .php
fastcgi.connect:
port: /var/run/php/php7.4-fpm-mysite.sock
type: unix
```
This works great for the home page. `/` serves `index.php`. But for every other page, it requires that I spell out the whole file name in the URL: `/other-page.php`
Is there an easy way to have H2O route these without needing the extension? I know I can manually list every file as a path in H2O or move every page to its own folder, but I would like something easier and more elegant than that if it exists. I know in Apache this would be a simple RewriteRule, and it's possible with try_files in nginx, but I'm not seeing a way to do this in H2O.
