Cannot control charset in ContentType header about embedio HOT 3 OPEN

unreleased v3.5.0

Hello @aesidaa, thanks for opening this issue.

Just a quick note to either my future self, or anyone taking up implementation:

• MIME type providers need to be able to specify whether a MIME type needs an encoding;
• FileModule needs a callback or similar mechanism to determine the actual encoding to set, given the served file;
• for immutable file providers at the least, the association between path and encoding should be cached.

I personally can't see this fixed in the immediate future; not in version 3 anyway. Is anyone willing to give it a shot?

I currently write a quick workaround according to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70643383/which-mime-types-contain-charset-utf-8-directive, only add charset=utf-8 for text/* and common ones like application/json, since this is really only needed for content that are consumed as text.
