Proper MIME support for Matroska in .desktop file

Hello,

just a little proposal. To properly support Matroska/.MKV files for the desktop environments,
shouldn't vlc.desktop file define all the possible Matroska MIME types?

For example, handbrake defines these:

Code: Select all

application/x-matroska; audio/x-matroska; video/x-matroska;
But VLC only has this:

Code: Select all

application/x-matroska

Mail's out.

I felt free to also add support for .xspf, the format which vlc saves its playlist as.
Seems weird nobody missed that mime type integration for now.
