[issue29823] ython guesses XSL mimetype when passed an XML file

[Aleksey Bilogur]

New submission from Aleksey Bilogur:

Copied over from an unanswered StackOverflow thread 
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/42542433/why-does-python-mimetype-guess-xsl-when-passed-an-xml-file):

When passed a file with a mimetype application/xml, the Python std lib 
mimetypes.guess_extension method guesses an .xsl extension. This is actually 
hard-coded in.

This seems wrong to me. But what do I know?
