I'm not sure we can do that - prefixes will clobber extensions, in this case "dockerfile".

I've gone cold on this one; it's introducing breaking changes.
We need to refactor this change - specifically the API - such that existing behaviour does not change. For the user to return the prefix icon they will need to explicitly specify it.
Unfortunately we haven't used named parameters for all API methods however we cannot change that. options is available in some cases but not all.
Proposal:
Draft an API that preserves existing behaviour and allows prefixes to be selected.
Extension:
New API that uses all name parameters via options
| The name is passed in to check for an exact match e.g. `.bashrc` if there is no exact name match the extension | ||
| is used. Calls `.setup()` if it hasn't already ran. | ||
|
|
||
| ```lua | ||
| require'nvim-web-devicons'.get_icon(filename, extension, options) | ||
| require'nvim-web-devicons'.get_icon(filename, pre_or_ext, options) |

This will break existing behaviour - a prefixed icon will be returned where none was before.
| else | ||
| icon_data = icons[name] or get_icon_by_extension(name, ext, opts) or (has_default and default_icon) | ||
| icon_data = icons[name] | ||
| or get_icon_by_prefix(name, pre_or_ext, opts) |

This will result in a prefix being returned when users were previously expecting an extension, when the key is the same.
