[Tech] Proposed Freenet MIME types

[toad]

I propose the following MIME types for Freenet:

application/x-freenet-reference = .fref

A Freenet darknet reference.

application/x-freenet-index = .fridx

A Freenet index file. There are two formats, we can detect which is in
use reasonably easily. The old format will be deprecated when Librarian
supports the new (XML-based) format (which is used by Thaw for indexes).

application/x-freenet-blob = .fblob

A Freenet "binary blob" file. This is a collection of node-level keys,
and possibly some user-level keys. It allows us to export a freesite to
a file, then reinsert it on another node, without having to know the
private SSK key.

(The x- indicates that these are unofficial MIME types; if they were
ever registered they would lose the x-).
