explicit default-handler

Say I have the following:

/bar/.htaccess: SetHandler server-status
/bar/foo/joe.html

And I want everything in foo/ to be handled by the default handler.  Right
now I can't see a way to do that.  With the below change, I can do:

/bar/foo/.htaccess: SetHandler default-handler

Any objections?

Overdue.

Of course update the doc in mod_mime.

+1 as well, but it isn't quite the same thing as in the STATUS
file nor the PR.  The request was for a way to remove an AddHandler
association -- which is different from applying SetHandler to all
documents in a directory.  Doing a "SetHandler default-handler"
will, I think, disable things like SSIs and negociation.  I haven't
tested it, though.

There's a PR asking for this, and I even thought it was in the STATUS...
