OpenLP does not start due to mimetypes bug

[Phill]

OpenLP 2.0.1 on Windows using an alphabet other than Latin

This is caused by a bug in mimetypes in the Python library: http://bugs.python.org/issue9291 and stops OpenLP from starting.

It happens when another program (appears to be mainly iTunes) creates registry keys in another encoding other than Latin-1.

I'm going to assume that this does not affect 2.2 as its py3 and unicode as well as the linked bug affecting py2.7
