Dataset - Too Many "Unknown" Files, Friendly File MIME Type Display Names

[mheppler]

As referenced in #2192, there are files in production that need friendly MIME Type labels.

From @landreev

The file in question is ./src/main/java/MimeTypeDisplay.properties

We should identify as many of these as possible, and give them friendlier display names that the one that @pdurbin found.

[landreev]

Also, I believe we should extend this "friendly name" functionality, to support wild cards.
As in:

image/jpeg=JPEG Image
image/gif=GIF Image
image/bmp=Windows Bitmap Image
image/*=Graphic Image

i.e., we provide friendly names for the types we know about; and a generic name for an image of type image/blah-blah that's not specifically listed.
We can do the same with MS documents and other types of files. Because we'll always be encountering file types we don't know about.

[mheppler]

Currently, the File Type values that are delivered from MimeTypeFacets.properties are lower case (see attached). I suggest that we capitalize them.

[pdurbin]

@scolapasta I'm passing this to you for a decision of what to do for 4.2.

At standup I said I wanted to to check if I had documented the new file type redetect API endpoint I added (phew, done already) and I see that @landreev just pushed a release note in ef40804 which looks good. I just moved this to QA. Also looked at the recent code-related commits that @landreev made since I last touched the branch and they all look good to me too.

Something I should've done earlier - notes on how to test/what to look for:
There is more than one area of where things were improved:

1. The new API for re-identifying the types of files currently stored as unknown (mime type: "application/octet-stream") in the database. The API is /api/files/<FILEID>/redetect. Until this api is actually run in prod., the number that appears as "Unknown" in the type facets will not change. This API cannot be tested on the vm5 copy of the database - since it needs to read the actual files; and we don't want to point vm5 to the prod. s3 bucket. But it can be tested on some select files.
2. Better rules for classifying known mime types for the type facets indexing. This part can be tested on vm5 - a full reindex should affect the facet numbers, most notably:
   the misleading "Application" (30K files in prod. currently) facet should disappear completely;
   "Zip" facet (8K in prod.) should go away, replaced by "Archive", showing a higher number (all compressed and archived formats will be indexed under this type);
   A new facet "Code" should appear, with a sizeable number of files (20K+)
   A new facet "Other", with a relatively small number of files. (this is for the files previously indexed under the "Application" facet, that haven't been reclassified under more informative groupings).
3. More file types should have "friendly" type descriptions (as appear on the dataset and dataverse pages). See the diff on the MimeTypeDisplay.properties file.
4. Jhove should do a better job identifying some file types. The recommended way of testing this is by uploading files via the API, to take the browser and the OS out of the picture. File types to try: png, gzipped. Changing/stripping the .png and .gz filename extensions would ensure that the type is identified by the contents, and not by the extension.
5. The list of recognized filename extensions used to guess the content type has been extended. See the diff on MimeTypeDetectionByFileExtension.properties.
6. It may be worth confirming that Mike's type-specific default thumbnails are still working properly - the code that selects those have been reorganized as part of this PR too.

Peaked at the icons mentioned in "6" and suggested tweaks for data and archive icons. Put my random selection of 84 unknown files into dvn-build and Data went last (2 of 84), to first (18 of 84). The unknowns were still pretty high, but hopefully we see greater gains in the full 127,109 pool of unknowns in production since all 84 of those files were unknowns there originally.
