fix(file-viewer): address review feedback on media preview

- Never write preview-only or binary files: handleSave is a no-op when
  previewKind/isBinary, and the text buffer is cleared when switching to a
  media/binary file, so Cmd/Ctrl+S can no longer post a stale or empty buffer
  over the file on disk (CodeRabbit: Data Integrity, Critical).
- Choose the fallback MIME type per file extension (single source of truth in
  previewableFile.ts) instead of per preview-kind, and only override when the
  server Content-Type is missing or generic, so webm/ogv/ogg/flac/svg render
  correctly (CodeRabbit: Functional Correctness, Major).
- Harden the PDF iframe: validate the %PDF- magic bytes and pin the blob MIME
  to application/pdf so a mislabeled HTML/SVG file can't execute in the app
  origin. A sandbox attribute is intentionally not used because Chromium's
  built-in PDF viewer will not load inside any sandboxed frame (CodeRabbit:
  Security, Critical).
