[issue10730] add .svgz to mimetypes.suffix_map and .svg to types_map

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

I think a variance from the policy stated in mimetypes is quite possible, and 
the kind of information you provide, Terry, is a step in that direction.  We 
would need release manager approval, of course, since we are in Beta, but this 
is a small enough change I think it would fly, assuming the policy variance is 
approved.

For types_map, it's a doc bug.  It is indeed a tuple of dictionaries, the first 
being the limited, 'strict' set and the second normally including stuff from 
the "standard locations", which on windows includes the registry.

So, there is an argument in favor of adding the suffix map even if the 
types_map isn't updated for .svg, since the .svg mapping could come from one of 
the 'standard locations'.  I'd rather add both, though.
