Media-Type for SVNPubSub

Right now the SVNPubSub server serves NUL separated JSON data as
text/plain. This is clearly wrong. But application/json would be
just as wrong. I'd prefer that we use something more specific than
application/octet-stream.

On IRC we've been discussing applying for a vendor tree media-type
registration with IANA.

After discussion Daniel and I agreed to:
application/vnd.apache-subversion.pubsub-stream+json

We're envisioning the following pattern for Apache projects (and
assuming there's no objections within the svn-dev community will
propose it to operations@):

vnd.apache-${project}.${format}
and
vnd.apache.${format}

The latter one would be used for cross project formats.
