Universal (//domain.com/asset.css) publicPath and ExtractTextPlugin: css is missing

[smolyakoff]

In my webpack configuration I have a public path configured in such a way that it is not dependent on HTTP/HTTPS server

{
   output: {
      publicPath: '//localhost:8080/'
   }
}

The output chunk names look like this:

[ '//localhost:8080/vendor-3a8b12e879b7905f4358.js',
  '//localhost:8080/vendor-3a8b12e879b7905f4358.js.map' ]
[ '//localhost:8080/app-3a8b12e879b7905f4358.js',
  '//localhost:8080/styles.css',
  '//localhost:8080/app-3a8b12e879b7905f4358.js.map',
  '//localhost:8080/styles.css.map' ]

CSS is not inserted into the output HTML, probably because path.extname() is used to get an .css extension

Can we add a special check to cover this case?

In webpack you should always specify http or https in your public path during development as it will break background images in css files if you use source maps.
But feel free to create pull request for this issue 👍

@jantimon Thanks for you notice, haven't faced background images yet. This could still be useful when building a package for deployment, urls should work in this case (i'm using extract text plugin).

I've created a pull request, could you take a look?
