Loosen mime-types gem requirement

[philostler]

Required for 2.0 release of mime-types

No change to mime-types method sig that mongoid-grid_fs uses.

[philostler]

Could we ideally have a gem release as well pls?

Duly noted and updated.

On a side note, may I suggest hooking this project up to Travis CI for automated testing if it's possible or improving the local testing experience. Running the tests on this project is a challenge in itself sometimes and proves to be a bit of a barrier to contribution IMHO.

@philostler Thanks for the fast turnaround. However, I'm not able to get a passing build. Did the test suite work for you? I actually got an error trying to load rails through mongoid. I'm on the run at the moment. I'll try to come back to this later, but in the meantime, if you can let me know if you can reproduce, that would help.

/Users/rmcgeary/work/oss/mongoid-grid_fs/vendor/ruby/2.0.0/gems/mongoid-3.1.5/lib/mongoid/railtie.rb:5:in `require': cannot load such file -- rails (LoadError)

Yes. That! It would make my life easier too. Unfortunately, I don't have the credentials to do that. @ahoward needs to take this step. I'd be happy to add a .travis.yml file. In fact, I added the gemfiles directory in preparation for Travis CI builds.

Could we ideally have a gem release as well pls?

I also don't have the credentials to do this either. Please feel free to email @ahoward directly and nudge him. He doesn't subscribe to any GitHub notifications that I'm aware of.

so, when is this getting fixed? many gems now have upgraded to mime-types 2.0 and now having a dependency nightmare.
