[Building Sakai] Wrong MIME type associated with PDF files uploaded in Resources

[Matthew Jones]

I haven't heard of anyone backporting it to 2.9, and don't see anything in
the commit logs.

That's part of the patch for content detection, you'd also need
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/KNL-101
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-28090

Easist just to use the latest version of 10.

It was mostly written for problems such as this.
