[MPlayer-dev-eng] Bug in http streaming (found by Johannes Feigl)

[Bertrand Baudet]

Ok, I just fixed it.
Now if a server doesn't report a proper mime-type,
the http streaming will be start and mplayer will detect
the proper demuxer.
I tried with several file on my web server with a unknow
extension and unknow mime-type and it worked 
smoothly :))
But we should try with more servers and more files.
