* implement the getContentType methods which will derive a content
* type from a file name or a File object. FileTypeMaps could use any
* scheme to determine the data type, from examining the file extension
* of a file (like the MimetypesFileTypeMap) to opening the file and
* trying to derive its type from the contents of the file. The
* FileDataSource class uses the default FileTypeMap (a MimetypesFileTypeMap
* unless changed) to determine the content type of files.
