[bug] AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'extend'

When using dpath.merge(x, y) with objects as described below, dpath raises an error when it stumbles into a tuple and appears to treat it like a list and uses extend:

import dpath

x = { "foo": [] }
y = { "foo": [("bar", "baz")] }

dpath.merge(x, y)

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'extend'

I believe that this can be handled by catching the AttributeError that is raised:
