I believe it'd be application/jose per
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-31#section-9.2.1
and
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-jose-json-web-signature-31#section-4.1.9
and one could further distinguish between JWS/JWE using the alg header or
the number of periods in the compact serialization.
