[issue1043134] Add preferred extensions for MIME types

[Éric Araujo]

The proposed patch does not solve the issue.  In the current API, there is no way to do it, so this bug requires a new feature.  I think it would involve a new dict, like preferred_extensions, which would be seeded with default values, like .jpg for image/jpeg and .txt for text/plain, and a few functions/methods to query the dict or add items.
