Extract phone numbers from text

This script extracts phone numbers from a given text string. It uses a regular expression to identify phone numbers that may include area codes (with or without parentheses), separators (spaces, hyphens, or dots), and optional extensions. The function returns a list of all matched phone numbers found in the input text.
