avio_read may return EOF, leaving the mimetype array unitialized. fail
early when this occurs to avoid using the array in an unitialized state.

Yet another problem that could have been caught by static analysis..
Wouldn't it be better to always leave the array in a valid state?

Will add that in the next patch. It has the extra benefit of protecting the
isv34 branch.

Goto fail; skips a lot of lines that aren't needed if mimetype is empty, so
I think its worth keeping as well. I'd love to do similar for the isv34
branch, but I'm not sure how to detect the condition given the EOF behavior
for  avio_get_str:

 * @return number of bytes read (is always <= maxlen).
 * If reading ends on EOF or error, the return value will be one more than
 * bytes actually read.

How do callers differentiate between cases where you read 5 bytes vs
reading just 4 bytes and hitting an error - IIIUC both cases return 5.
