Subject: Optionally add extension to checked out files based on MIME type

If available, gdatastore will now use sugar.mime to guess an extension
to add to checked out files, based on their MIME type.

The outside world (including emacs) is still surprisingly focused on
file extensions rather than MIME types. By adding an extension to the
file names returned by gdatastore we help other software that has to
interface with legacy components. The alternative would be to add code
to every piece of glue code to guess the extension and rename the
file in a race-free way. Doing it in gdatastore reduces the overall
complexity of the software system.
