Change Log v1.7.12 (2019-06-15)

Changed:

• update PRONOM to v95
• update LOC signatures to 2019-05-20
• update tika-mimetypes signatures to v1.21

Fixed:

• .docx files with .doc extensions panic due to bug in division of hints in container matcher. Thanks to Jean-Séverin Lair for reporting and sharing samples and to VAIarchief for additional report with example.
• mime-info signatures panic on some files due to duplicate entries in the freedesktop and tika signature files; spotted during an attempt at pair coding with Ross Spencer… thanks Ross and sorry for hogging the laptop! #125
