Add comments about always setting INFER_EXTENSION.
INFER_EXTENSION must always be set in order to provide right mimetypes for some files. For example mimetype for css files must be 'text/css' and not 'text/plain' as returned by libmagic. If mimetype is not correct, css files of HTML5 webapps will be not correctly interpreted resulting in a strange rendering in browser like Chrome.
