Description

I noticed this as part of the "browse a repository with a web browser" work (https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1512). We're responding with a content type of text/html:

[vagrant@dev ~]$ curl -v -k "https://dev.example.com/pulp/repos/zoo/gorilla-0.62-1.noarch.rpm"
*   Trying 127.0.0.1...

This, of course, makes the browser try its best to render an RPM as html (I snipped that from the above demo). Surprisingly, yum and company seem to handle this fine, but a browser doesn't. We need to (somehow) make sure the content type is set correctly. There may be a setting in mod_xsendfile. If not, we'll need to do it in the WSGI application.

Attempt to guess the MIME type of content served with xsendfile.

This is mostly for the benefit of browsers, since the default MIME type Django uses is text/html which causes the browser to attempt to render RPMs and such instead of downloading them.
