Public bug reported:

For .html files `xdg-mime` reports wrong type. The culprit is the `"use
strict"` phrase which is used in JavaScript. It should not mistake .html
files for anything else except of text/html !

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
Run the following step by step in any folder:
1. $ echo "\"use strict\"" > index.html
2. $ xdg-mime query filetype index.html # -> application/x-perl - this should 
be text/html!
