Thoughts on just simplifying to checking for "<!doctype html"? That way, 
we'd also guess "text/html" for all the (mostly obsolete) HTML doctypes 
here: <https://www.w3.org/QA/2002/04/valid-dtd-list.html>.

(Technically the XHTML ones should be "application/xhtml+xml" but I 
don't think that makes any difference for EWW.)
