Description
### 🐞 Describe the Bug
Ember's `get` helper from `@ember/helper` can't handle accessing a value in an object when the key is a string with a dot in it.
E.g. applying `{{ get obj 'some.key' }} to `const obj = { 'some.key': 'some value' };` will return `undefined` rather than `'some value'`.

### 😕 Actual Behavior
Ember's `get` helper returns `undefined` when attempting to access a key that is a string containing a period.
### 🤔 Expected Behavior
I expect the `get` helper to handle accessing keys on objects just like vanilla JavaScript does. Barring that, I expect clear documentation about the different behavior.
### 🌍 Environment
- Ember: 6.12.0
