bug#15707: [PATCH 5/8] EWW: Option to always use external-browser for certain content.

["Rüdiger Sonderfeld" <ruediger@c-plusplus.de>]

Emacs can not display videos and has only limited audio support.
Therefore it makes sense to call an external browser for links of that
kind.  This is also a problem because shr turns <video> and <audio>
tags into links to the media.

* lisp/net/eww.el (eww-use-external-browser-for-content-type): New
  customizable variable.
  (eww-render): Handle `eww-use-external-browser-for-content-type'.
  Use \\` to match beginning of string instead of ^.
  (eww-browse-with-external-browser): Provide optional URL parameter.
