We'll be experimenting with several successive formats for BinAST.

We should version the header.

So, as discussed with @RReverser and @arai on another channel, we could use

• Content-Type=application/javascript-binast (current version – for backwards compatibility, that's the multipart encoding)
• Content-Type=application/javascript-binast;encoding=x-multipart (experimental, multipart)
• Content-Type=application/javascript-binast;encoding=context-0.1 (experimental, context 0.1)
• etc.

and use Content-Encoding=br (or other).

Not sure if we can somehow register every content type that starts with application/javascript-binast.
