MIME: use "application/javascript" for .js files.

Though there are several MIME types commonly used for JavaScript nowadays,
the most common being "text/javascript", "application/javascript", and
currently used by nginx "application/x-javascript", RFC 4329 prefers
"application/javascript".

The "charset_types" directive's default value was adjusted accordingly.
