Summary: Content-Type header for ftp url

Initial Comment:
This patch changes urllib.URLOpener.open_ftp: A 
Content-Type header is included when the MIME type can 
be guessed via mimetypes.guess_type.

A patch to the documentation is included.

Example:
>>> import urllib
>>> urllib.urlopen
("ftp://ftp.python.org/pub/python/2.2/Python-
2.2a2.tgz").info().headers   
['Content-Type: application/x-tar\n', 'Content-Length: 
5980204\n']

Feel free to contribute a patch. (Does it do content-types
for local files yet?)

Equivalent changes should probably be made to 
urllib2.FTPHandler.ftp_open too.
