Add documentation of content-type detection strategy

Also refactored to make the strategy hierarchy clearer

lib/paperclip/content_type_detector.rb

 module Paperclip
   class ContentTypeDetector
+    # The content-type detection strategy is as follows:
+    #
+    # 1. Blank/Empty files: If there's no filename or the file is empty, provide a sensible default
+    #    (application/octet-stream or inode/x-empty)
+    #
+    # 2. Uploaded file: Use the uploaded file's content type if it is in the list of mime-types
+    #    for the file's extension
+    #
+    # 3. Standard types: Return the first standard (without an x- prefix) entry in the list of
+    #    mime-types
+    #
+    # 4. Experimental types: If there were no standard types in the mime-types list, try to return
+    #    the first experimental one
+    #
+    # 5. Unrecognized extension: Use the file's content type or a sensible default if there are
+    #    no entries in mime-types for the extension
+    #
+    
     EMPTY_TYPE = "inode/x-empty"
     SENSIBLE_DEFAULT = "application/octet-stream"
