Description: 
        This module provides basic functions for handling mime-types. It can handle
        matching mime-types against a list of media-ranges. See section 14.1 of 
        the HTTP specification [RFC 2616] for a complete explanation.

        Contents:
            - parse_mime_type():   Parses a mime-type into its component parts.
            - parse_media_range(): Media-ranges are mime-types with wild-cards and a 'q' quality parameter.
            - quality():           Determines the quality ('q') of a mime-type when compared against a list of media-ranges.
            - quality_parsed():    Just like quality() except the second parameter must be pre-parsed.
            - best_match():        Choose the mime-type with the highest quality ('q') from a list of candidates.
