.MediaType.Suffixes returns empty array for m4v when site is deployed to GitLab #10

When I built my site locally, everything worked as expected. Now I pushed the site to gitlab pages and the build failed. I traced it down to .MediaType.Suffixes returning []. The file in question is a m4v video file.

The page resource is found though. It just can't determine the extension. I'll look for a solution.

So it turns out this is connected to #8 . m4v is not in the built-in media types for MP4 videos.

One could override the MIME type in the theme's own configuration. I have a working example and will create a pull request.
