Add application/importmap+json

[FlippieCoetser]

External Import maps require a specific MIME-type, here is the link to W3C and to WICG

Awesome, thank you @FlippieCoetser ! The links you were provided where a bit unclear on the file extension, but since there is a repo for the spec, I asked for clarification at WICG/import-maps#282 . I'll merge it with an affirmative response, or if there is no response in a reasonable time frame since that one part does seem to imply that is the file extension.

@dougwilson I noticed you closed the PR, does this mean application/importmap+json will not be added? Section 2.3 and 6.1.1 in the W3C Spec mention the new MIME type. Without the new MIME type chrome browser does not accept the external importmap.

Hi @FlippieCoetser I did not close the PR. The timeline shows it was closed after you posted your comment about it being closed. You can just reopen it. I'm just awaiting the info I asked for above to merge.

[dougwilson]

It looks like your fork was deleted, which I guess github auto closed the pr due to that. It is unclear what closd the PR, because it is says closed (instead of by who like it normally does) and every time we post, it koves down, as if it was closed in the far future or something.

@dougwilson, there is no option to reopen the PR. very strange.

[dougwilson]

Yea, I realized that in my second comment. You cannot reopen a pr if you deleted your fork. That is probably what closed it as well.
