ui_plain: automatically lookup mimetype when mimetype-file is set

For sites that do not want to configure mime types by hand but
still want the correct mime type for 'plain' blobs, configuring
a mime type file is made possible. This is handy since such a
file is normally already provided (at least on Linux systems).

Also, this reflects the gitweb option '$mimetypes_file'
