Args:
templates: search list of templates (or just a single template not in a
list) from which template paths will be extracted (discarding the final
template file name of each template)
new_template_file: new "sibling" template file to append to each extracted
template path
Returns:
A list of potential "sibling" templates named by new_template_file located
in the paths of the templates in the supplied list. For example, from:
['foo/bar/the_old_template.html', 'foo/the_old_template.html']
to:
