#9621: Tracker and MediaPlayer don't recognize filetype without extension

In the BeOS days, one of the cool features was that the system knew what a
file was without an extension. As such, I have many files around without
extensions. If I try to open one of these on hrev45407, MediaPlayer says
it's not a known type, and Tracker's Identify command does not change the
file icon. I rename the file with '.mp4', and MediaPlayer plays it fine,
and its icon changes in Tracker. After that I can even rename it back to
having no extension, and it still works.
