#15110: Useless MIME type served for rss feeds

 Both /feed/, /feed/rss2/, and /feed/rss/ are served using the very
 undescriptive and generally useless "text/xml" MIME type.  ATOM and RDF
 feeds are served with their proper MIME types.  It looks like the MIME
 types for RSS are in feed.php, but for some reason there is a special
 "rss-http" type that returns the useless type?  Changing the first line in
 feed-rss.php and feed-rss2.php to use the rss and rss2 type instead of
 rss-http fixed it on my site.
