Import QMimeType / QMimeDatabase into QtCore.
History of the development before the import: ssh://codereview.qt-project.org/playground/mimetypes.git Mimetype definitions come from shared-mime-info where available (UNIX systems), loaded using a mmap'ed binary cache generated by update-mime-database. As a fallback if no cache is found, we parse the raw XML files otherwise. This makes the MIME type support fast and with very low memory usage on UNIX, and it makes it easy to use on Windows (no dependency on shared-mime-info, Qt even includes a freedesktop.xml file to use if none are found on the system).

+ \class QMimeType
+ \brief The QMimeType class describes types of file or data, represented by a MIME type string.
+
+ \since 5.0
+
+ For instance a file named "readme.txt" has the MIME type "text/plain".
+ The MIME type can be determined from the file name, or from the file
+ contents, or from both. MIME type determination can also be done on
+ buffers of data not coming from files.
+
+ Determining the MIME type of a file can be useful to make sure your
+ application supports it. It is also useful in file-manager-like applications
+ or widgets, in order to display an appropriate icon() for the file, or even
+ the descriptive comment() in detailed views.
+
+ To check if a file has the expected MIME type, you should use inherits()
+ rather than a simple string comparison based on the name(). This is because
+ MIME types can inherit from each other: for instance a C source file is
+ a specific type of plain text file, so text/x-csrc inherits text/plain.
