It seems quite ambiguous to me if this is really the right thing to do.  Is a
gzipped svg file still a plain image/xvg+xml or is it an image/xvg+xml with a
content-encoding implied?  I'd tend to believe the latter, in which case it does
not make sense to change the mime.types file unless there is also a
corresponding AddEncoding directive.

The svg spec does not seem perfectly clear on this topic.  But I don't see
anywhere where it says that applications conforming to the spec must understand
gzipped documents.  So that implies that the gzip is not part of the content
type, and we shouldn't change mime.types.

Feel free to provide evidence to the contrary (and reopen the bug if you do so).
