Description

When using `babelify --extensions [ .ts ] --presets [ @babel/preset-typescript ]` I get a TypeError.

```
TypeError: extensions.indexOf is not a function
.../node_modules/babelify/index.js:71:18)
```

Seems like extensions is an object `{ _: ['.ts'] }`

Research direction

Reproduce the reported command and inspect babelify/index.js around line 71, where extensions.indexOf is called. Trace how the --extensions argument becomes { _: ['.ts'] }; done means the command accepts the TypeScript extension without the reported TypeError.
