add probabilistic mime selection The probabilistic mime selection detector has been re-implemented. the Bayesian probabilistic selection has been improved by adding more freedom and flexibilities that allow users to specify their own prior and conditional probabilities; the concrete details and basic idea are illustrated in the Tika-1571 and the implementation still follow the main description posted in the https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1517 but with a minor change on the prior probability which was not modifiable in the original design. The https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1535 is resolved according to Prof Mattmann's suggestion.
