    mime-types: drop rar support
    
    Unfortunately rar is not well supported by libarchive, so for now let's
    drop its support so we don't expect users of autoar to extract files
    that are corrupted.
    
    The upstream documentation of what rar parts are supported or not are
    not clear, so far I found:
    https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues/373
    https://github.com/vitasdk/packages/pull/4#issuecomment-272375907
    https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/wiki/LibarchiveFormats it says
    read only for rar, but that is should work for any rar. However seems
    rar5 is not supported.
    
    This patch drops support for rar, and in case of some clients like
    Nautilus will use file-roller for rar until libarchive fixes.
