Strategy: pass in a "before the slash" part of the mime type to wp_get_mime_types() which will only return those ones. Get rid of wp_get_audio_extensions() and wp_get_video_extensions().

So, ME.js only supports a subset of the video/audio MIME types WP knows about. So allowing all of them would lead to embeds being processed that won't work. Not great. We should keep these separate as they are for different purposes.
