FileFormat does not support multiple extensions #64

Some file formats have multiple extensions and it would be nice to be able to have aliases for them. For example, image/jpeg can be .jpg or .jpeg and image/tiff can be .tif or .tiff.

Suggested change:

Add a new property to FileFormat called something like Extensions or OtherExtensions
Update constructors to allow an optional list/array of alternate extensions to be passed

Sure, we had a similar request recently which I've started implementing - I'll try to find some time to finish it off.
