summary:

bpo-35474: Fix mimetypes.guess_all_extensions() potentially mutating list (GH-28286) (GH-28289)

* Calling guess_all_extensions() with strict=False potentially
  mutated types_map_inv.
* Mutating the result of guess_all_extensions() mutated types_map_inv.
(cherry picked from commit 97ea18ecede8bfd33d5ab2dd0e7e2aada2051111)
