New submission from MARK SCHWAB <schw...@nsidc.org>:

The HDF data group relased HDF5 many years ago, it is a common data type for 
many science files.

Their recommendation for file extension is '.h5', and mimetype 
'application/x-hdf5'.

See 'Recommendations' section for mime types from the HDF group here: 
https://www.hdfgroup.org/2018/06/citations-for-hdf-data-and-software/

Update mimetypes.py #20042
