>>> import mimetypes
>>> mimetypes.guess_type("README.rst", strict=False)
(None, None)

In the python:3.11 Docker image, we get a vanity type:

>>> mimetypes.guess_type("README.rst", strict=False)
('text/prs.fallenstein.rst', None)

I think most people would expect text/x-rst. Even better would be to get it registered!

Given that this type is explicit in packaging specifications, it would be valuable for Python to support inferring it from an extension and avoid hacks like these.
