Patrick Gansterer 387e50bd8f Allow serving files without known mimetype
RFC2616 only says that any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body
SHOULD include a Content-Type header field defining the media type of
that body.
RFC2119 defines SHOULD as: This word mean that there may exist valid
reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but
the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before
choosing a different course.

AG: this isn't an oversight, it's paranoia about sending out /etc/passwd
or /etc/shadow accidentally.

I agree it should be allowed if people really want to override it.  But
the default should remain like it is I think.

I adapted the patch to allow the extra mimetype "*": "" to be declared on
a mount, as a wildcard match that serves the file without a Content-Type.
