    NIFI-2374 and NIFI-2375 - Minor improve to documentation and version bump

    NIFI-2374 - Today when I was about to raise an ISSUE I've noticed that although the IdentifyMimeType documentation provides a list of MIME-types that list is far from complete. This commit slightly changes wording to reflect this
    
    NIFI-2375 - Bump Apache Tika's version used by IdentifyMimeType and ExtractMediaMetada processors

> The current documentation of IdentifyMimeType mentions the processor is capable of identifying a reasonably small range of file types.
> However, upon inspecting the code, it becomes evident that the processor employs Apache Tike detectors and parsers (required to distinguish a ZIP file from a JAR).
> This means the list of File(MIME) types detected is the same as the one present in Tika's DefaultDetector.
